Letter to the Editor on Nevt\ln~.
Preface to the New Edition.

I make no apology for republishing Dr. Simmonite's 11 Arcana of


Astrology." Dr. Simmonite was the master of this science in his
day; his work has ever been eagerly sought after, and fabulous
prices have been asked and obtained for it. Its republication was
an imperative nectlssity that truth might the more fully abound.
· I commenced the republication of this great work at such a time
as the superior powers appointed for me to do so, for the good of
mankind and the benefit of all students in the grand, noble, and
sublime study of astrology, and when the influences indicated a
·permanent and ever-growing fame. This book will ever stand in
the first rank with all students of astrological lore. Generations
shall pass away, and the cenruries roll on, but this work shall
endure and remain; remain as a preacher of laws, as a teacher of
·truth, and as an evidence of the . power of times and of seasons.
It is already makir.g its way over the Continents of Europe,
America, and Australia, and will eventually be found in the utter-
most parts of the earth.
The old edition contained a great number of printer's errors, and
I have given great attention to this reprint to make it as correct
and free from error as possible ; and that it might be clear to the
sight I have had it printed with new type, bought expressly for the
purpose.
I have added short notes on the planet Neptune (page 84, g8,
134, 146, and other parts) as I am of opinion that it is time the
. nature and influence of this planet was brought before the notice
of students. Although discovered September 23rd, 1846, the pro-
fessors of astrology have not generally made up .their minds as to
what they can, or will, say for it. Writing this as I am 44 years
. after its discovery, I find them still saying, 11 Let us watch it,"
11 We must compare notes for sometime to come yet," etc. This is
very good and very proper, but it seems to me they are unwilling
to let go their old notions. It is with planets as with men, "By
their works ye shall know them." Then let us look at Neptune's
works and know it. It has just left the sign Taurus, ruling Ireland,
and such history has been made for that country that future gener-
ations will read with amazement and awe. Relllember Dublin,

its way through Gemini, the ruling sign of our Capital City
London, and it has already begun to show its disposition. It has
just been passing over the Sun, Moon, and Ascendent of our
Sovereign Lady, Queen Victoria, and the result is shown in the
discontent and trouble in the army, police, postal service, etc., and
when it reaches the ruling degree of the city it will, according to
the aspects thrown to it, cause such events as will long be remem-
bered. It will put to nought the wisdom of our legislators, and
show, '''tis not in mortals to command success." At the same time
I do not wish you to understand by this that his influence will be,
and produce, all evil. His positions at birth, his aspects, transits
over him, and he over others, wUl show the thoughtful student his
power and influence, and I expect he will produce some very novel
and striking features in the near future. Most of the readers of
this work began their lives in the most important, intellectual, and ·
progressive period of human history; the period of such marvels
as the telepraph, telephone, phonograph, electric lighting, anresthet·
ics, new and po.verlul explosives, the spectroscope, etc., but I look
for greater wonders to be unfolded during the next decade. The
preacher, the lawyer, and the medical man, will have to take long
strides to keep pace with the times ; and who shall say that the
undying vigil of the astronomer shall not be rewarded by discovering
other intelligent dwellers in other planets, and even discover means
of intercourse with them.
I have added at the end of this work an article on Neptune,
forwarded me by a very thoughtful and erudite professor of astro-
logy, in which I trust you will find matter for thought and
consideration.
I see it is becoming the fashion amongst a certain class of writers
to entirely repudiate any -power or influence to the .Q, ~, and $.
I advise you to take no man's word upon them, but look to the $
in your money affairs, and note the passage of the 0 over the radix
~, and then judge for yourselves. There are too many
superficial professors of this art. It requires as much study as
medicine or law, and years of experience before any man should
consider himself sufficiently proficient to follow it as a profession.

And now, in conclusion, let me say,-do not simply read this


book, but be a student of it, study to understand the mysteries.
therein set forth, divest your mind of all prejudices, notions, and
educational acquirements which are in opposition to this science,
and come to it, even as a little child, knowing nothing, but desiring
to know all the truth. Herein is stored the wisdom of the ages of
the past ; here is the lore of the shepherds of old, the Egyptians,
Hindoos, Greeks, Arabians, and a long line.ot philosophers have
added to the store of this knowledge, and you, standing in their
lot, can take hold of the threads where the'j ha.~e \e\\ \'t\.e-m., "<1-"t\.~

of prevailing superstition and error. The mind of mankind is


bounding onward. The spirit of th~ age is one of enquiry. Reason, ·
not faith, is the prevailing tendency. Sacerdotal ascendency is
on the wane, and proof for every assertion is demanded. Old beliefs
are shaking, their errors are bemg detected, and the cry upon every
side is for Light and Truth. 'Tis now the mental crisis of the race,
and the my:>teries of nature are now the subjects of thought and of
study. Then, if you would know the secrets of Humanity, survey
the universe around you, mark its wonderful laws and workings,
then turn to the pages of this work and study the application of the
wonderful laws and works there seen, and you will find mankind
and his works no longer a mystery to you, but that he is acting in
perfect subserviency to laws which have been set in operation by·
the Maker and Creator of the uni\·erse.
I have added a very choice little work which will be found at
the end of this book, entitled, "The Ruling of the Microcosm,"
being an astrological and physical discourse on the human virtures
in the body of man, both principal and administrating, which
students will find of inestimable value, and which may probably
throw light upon some points which have seriously puzzled them.
I also desire to add that I have some very valuable manuscripts
and tables of houses f:Jr different latitudes, which I may probably
at some futur.e date put into print and introduce to your notice.
Now, if each reader will introduce the "Arcana of Astrology"
to some other seeker after truth he will be hastening the time for
the public recognition of the grand old science, and the universal
acceptation of its grand, noble, and elevating truths.
Wishing and hoping for each reader a long, bright, and pros-
perous future, each in his own sphere, and that each may do his
utmost to advance the work,

I am, yaurs very truly,

JOHN STORY.

PREFACE
TO THE ORIGINAL EDITION.

THE present Treatise is the most full, practical, and simple Work
on Genethliology ever offered, in one body, to the Astrological
world. Herein the Student will find embodied the most pithy
and philosophical information of all Astral Philosophers of all
age11 and all countries, from the time of the wise and learned
Babylonians and Chaldeans to the present day.
The Science of which this Volume treats is the most ancient as
to its antiquity, the most sublime as to its application, for it leads
the benevolent mind from natu~e up to nature's God ; it is the
most moral branch, nay, most virtuous of Natural or Physical
Philosophy; it is second to none as to its utility and ·divinity, for
holy men of God have studied it, such as a holy Daniel, a Sha-
drach, a Mesech, and an Abednego. Moses learned it in Egypt,
and taught it to many of the Prophets and Seers; Abraham learned
the art in Chaldea, and instructed the Egyptians in astrology,
arithmetic, and geometry. Noah preserved the science from the
time of Enos to the days of Abraham ; and Enos learned it from
Seth, the latter patriarch was taught by Adam. Hence we find
that a knowledge of Astrology has been understood, and has also
been practised from the very creation of man.
In modern days all the master-minds of philosophers have
practised and cultivated the great Art ; the most renowned mathe-
maticians have devoted much of their time and talents to the
perfecting the Astral Doctrine, such as Ptolemy, Newton, Kepler,
Napier, and many hundreds more, notwithstanding the opposition
of blind and zealous bigots. All the fathers of Physic were
indebted to this laudable philosophy, and inseparably connected
it with medicine, such as Hypocrates, Galen, Mesmer, &c., as
well as many of the present day eminent physicians which I could
mention. The immortal reformers oi \be te\\\\0\\'0 "'NO"t\0., ~'-~~~'\.

an exception, were either Authors in this gigantic boon to man-


kind, or were believers in its verity and divine origin-such were
Jerome, Melancthon, Luther, Grotius, Bishop Hall, Archbishop
Usher, and many others.
The chief reason, perhaps, why Prognostic Astronomy is not
more universally practised in these days, is, that the science has
been generally cultivated by eminent mathematicians, and hence
ill-founded opinion has arisen that it is necessary to sturiy a
tedious cour~e of mathematics prior to entering upon the study of
this science. Here the science may be understood, without
possessing a knowledge of mathematics, for wherever geometrical
figures are introduced they explain themselves, and these are more
generally found in Book Second.
It is with the view to render the study of this sublime and
useful branch of knowledge more entertaining, mo!e complete, and
more easily understood hy the general class of enquirers than it
has hitherto been, that this book appears.
The science assures us that the earth we inhabit is but a small
and inconsiderable part of a glorious fabric, since there are almost
infinite worlds created hy a Supreme Being, which are prodigiously
large, and that they all work harmoniously and sympathetically
together, in the disposing and governing of which the same Being
exercises His infinite power and wisdom. Nor is there any
knowledge, attained by the light of nature, that gives us juster
ideas of this great Being, or furnishes us with stronger arguments
by which to demonstrate his existence and attributes : for the
heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament sheweth his
handy-work; day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night
sheweth knowledge ; and there is no speech nor language where
the voice of the stars is not heard.
How far I have been able to simplify and perfect Genethliolgy
I shall leave the Student and Elder Artists to decide. Hoping
this piece of labour, pains, and indefatigable research into the
Arcanum of Nature will be found of eternal advantage is the most
sincere desire of
THE AUTHOR.

CHAPTER I.
THE TWELVE "SIGNS OF THE ZODIAC, AND THEIR DIVISIONS.

I. The Zodiac being the great circle of the sphere, is divided


into 36o degrees ; every degree into 6o minutes; every minute into
6o seconds, thirds, fourths, and farther, if necessary.
2. Every sign contains 30 of these degrees, and thus 12 signs
comprise the Zodiac.
NORTHERN SIGNS. SOUTHERN SIGNS,
'Y' Aries ....... opposite to . .. . ~ Libra.
~ Taurus . ..... ditto nt Scorpio.
n Gemini...... ditto 1 Sagittarius.
qo Cancer . .. . .. ditto Y.f Capricorn.
S\, Leo . .. ... ... ditto ::: Aquarius.
tiJt Virgo......... ditto *
Pisces.
3· The first six signs are called Northern, because the Sun is
longer above the earth than below, and because they decline from
the equator towards the North Pole.
The latter six are called Southern, because they decline towards
the South Pole, or our opposite hemisphere ; and the Sun remains
longer below the Earth than above ...
4· There are also nine other bodies, called Planets, and their
Symbols are as follows:

5· The Asteroids arc found to have some influence: they are


Vesta, Juno, Pallas, Ceres, but at the present day their influence
is very little known.
6. There are also three Points in the Heavens which must be
considered, viz.,
Q The Dragon's Head, or Moon's N. Node.
~ The Dragon's Tail, or Moon's S. Node.
En The Part of Fortune, and the Earth.
7· The fourth class of Symbols used in Astronomy 1s called
Aspects, viz.,
0 Conjunction, or same degree of longitude.
s* Semisextile, or JO degrees apart, a geometrical figure called
a dodecagon.
De. Decile, or 36 degrees apart, divides a circle into ten sides,
which forms ten angles, called a decagon.
Nonagon, or 40 degrees, divides the Heavens into nine equal
sides, a polygon of some importance.
Sa Semisquare, or 45 degrees, forms a regular octagon, a figure
of eight sides and angles, or half a sflmiarc.
* Sextile, or 6o degrees apart, which is the angle of a regular
spherical triangle, or figure of three angles, or two-thirds of a
semi arc.
Qu. Quintile, or 72 degrees apart, which is the supplemental
angle o( a regular pentagon, or figure of five sides and angles, or
one-fifth of the Zodiac.
a Square, or go degrees apart, or one quarter of the entire
heavens, or a semiarc and a half, a figure of four sides, called a
quadrangle.
Y Sesqt~iqt~intile, 108 degrees, a quintile and half, or a whole
semiarc and one-fifth.
6. Trine, 120 degrees in the Zodiac, and forms the angle of a
regular hexagon, or figure of six angles and six sides; it is the
whole of a semiarc and one-third of another in the world.
SSQ. Sesquisquare, 135 degrees, and is the angle of a regular
-
l octagon, or figure of eight sides, the whole semiarc and one-half.
BQ. Biquintile, or 144 degrees, a double quintile, the angle of a
regular decagon, or ten sides and ten angles, or four-fifths of a
diurnal arc.
QX. Quincunx, or 150 degrees, and consists of five signs.
8 opposition, or 18o degrees, the sum of two right angles. .
P. Parallel, the same distance from the equator, North or South.
8. We divide these· angular positions, or aspects, into four
classes, according to their species, and into fifteen divisions, in
reference to angular directions, according to their strength or
inRuence1 namely,
DF.FISITIOSS OF TF.R:\fS. 3
CLASS
1. Solar Aspects, or those formed between the Sun and Planets.
2. Mt~tual Aspects, or those found among the Planets.
3· Lunar Aspects, or those formed between the Moon and
the Planets.
4· Astronomical Positions, are those peculiar positions of the
Planets which are said to be Stationary, Retrograde, or
when they are said to be in their Exaltation, Fall, House,
Detriment, Combustion, Cadent, or any other accidental
position.

AsTROLOGY is compounded of two Greek words-(Aster) a Star,
and (Logos) discourse, science, word, or reason; and literally im-
plies the doctrine and law of the Stars--hence the noble Art or
Science of foretelling events. · It is based on Astronomy, and the
motions, influences, aspects, qualities, and positions of the heavenly
bodies. It comprehends the most excellent part o{ t\\.~ · ~~\}\~

science of Physiology, or Natural Philosophy, which is the doctrine


of natural bodies in the construction of the work of nature.
Astrology consists of three parts or branches, namely :-I. Gen-
ethliology, which teaches us by certain mathematical rules, to
judge from the figure, or chart, of the heavens, at the moment of
birth, the form, temperament, and character of the individual ;
the blemishes, hurts, mental and bodily diseases ; the qualitY. of
the intellectual faculties, and mental propensities, the rrobabllity
of friends and enemies, their nature and description ; o marriage,
of offspring ; of success in business ; strength of constitution,
natural disposition, and many of the most remarkable periods of
life, either advantageous or otherwise.
2. Astrology, Mundane, or State, or the Art of Foreseeing, from
the position of the heavenly bodies, at the time of eclipses, great
conjunctions, and other periods, the changes and circumstances
of nations as to war, pestilence, famine, earthquakes, and other
physical phenomena.
3· Astrology, Horary, or the Art of Foreseeing Events from the
positions of the heavens at the moment a question is propounded,
or when an individual may be anxious about any matter, the result
of any business, or circumstance whatever. This part of the
science is the easiest understood, and the most advantageous to
mankind. It furnishes the Astral Student with the actual means
of satisfying those doubts to which the minds of all men are
subject, by an apparently simple means, which presumes that the
same sympathetic power which causes the iron and magnet to
attract and approach each other, exists throughout nature.
Abcission of light, is when a ligbt planet goes toad of a ponderous
planet, but before his 0 the ponderous planet goes to a more pon-
derous, whereby the light of the inferior is cut off. See Frustration.

singularly weak when so elongated.
*.
C'..ommon signs, n , ti.J!., 1 , and
Conjunction, two planets being in the same longitude. If they be

decanate.
Declination, the distance any body is north or south of the equator.
The 0 has never more than 23° 28' of declination, which happens
only whea he is in ga or ]fj', and is caused by the pole of the Earth
being inclined from the plane of the Earth's orbit.

quarters, and appears only half illuminated. .
Decile, an aspect consisting of 36°, or I sign 6 degrees.
Deneb, a star of the 2nd magnitude, in the 4th face of nx, the
nature of W; unfortunate, and publicly disgraceful.
Decreasing in light, when any planet is past the 8 of 0, it

Decum#Jiture, a lying down ; the figure erected for the time of any
person being first taken ill, and taking to their bed.
Degree, the 3oth part of a sign in the zodiac, or the 36oth part of
any circle.

Descension, the going down of any body from the meridian above
the Earth to that below it ; for thougp the 0 is lost sight of at

or the N ., FIG, 4•
Descending in a figure, is when a planet is between the M.C. and
j'th, or j'th and M. C.
Descension, Oblique, the reverse of Oblique Ascension • .
Delation, (or restoring of light), is when an inferior planet aspects
a superior who is combust or retrograde, for then the higher planet
restoreth to the inferior his virtue which he before sent him : this
in angles, is good, in cadents with detriment.
Destructun, is when three planets shall be in one sign, of which
one planet is ponderous, the other two more light : then one of the
li~ht planets should pass the ponderous, the other tends to a d
WJth the ponderous; but before that 0 is made, the planet which
passes the ponderous turns retrograde ; and is again joined to the
ponderous, and from thence pass to the 0 of the other light planet.

Detriment, the sign opposite the house of any planet ; as 3 m ~
is in his detriment. It is a sign of weakness, distress, &c.
Digit, in Astronomy, the 12th part of the 0's diameter, which is
often used in the calculation of eclipses.
Dignities, these are either essential or accidental. The former is
when any planet is in its own house, exaltation, triplicity, joy : the
latter is when any planet is in an angle, and well aspected, not
affiicted, swift in motion, increasing in light, &c. The reverse of
dignities are debilities.
Direct, as applied to planets, denotes their moving in the true
order of the celestial signs, as from 'Y' to ~ , &c. ·
nirection, the measuring the space between the bodies or aspects
of any two planets, or that between any two parts of the heavens,
to ascertain at what period of life the promised effect will appear.
Their distance is a certain number of degrees of the A. R. of the
0, which, when he has passed over, the direction is complete. It
is called the Arc of Direction.
Direction, Secondary, the aspects formed by the 0 or Din the days
immediately succeeding the birth. Each day between the birth
and the time of the aspect is formed is equal to one exact year of
life; thus, if the D form a good aspect with J+, exactly 21 days
after birth, the native will feel his effects just about his 21st birth-
day.
Direct Motion, this is in reality converse motion, but is so called
to distinguish the case of the promittors being carried towards the
the bodies or aspects of the 0 or ]), which directions are considered
somewhat less powerful than those by converse motion.
d.. l
'Diurnal, of or belonging to the day; thus, the ~~otions of
the planets are the spaces they move through in a day.
Diurnal Arc, is the length of time that part of the heavens in
which any planet is at birth is above the Earth ; and it is usually
measured by degrees.
nisc, of the 0 or D• is its round face, which, on account of the
great distance of the object, appears flat, or like a plain llurface.
Diverging, going farther and farther asunder.
Dispose, Dispositor, a planet disposes of any other which may be
found in its essential d~nities. Thus, if 0 be in 'Y', the house of
3 • then 3 disposes ot 0' and is ;;aid to rule, receive, or govern

him. When the dispositor of the planet signifying the thing asked
after is himself disposed by the lord of the ascendant, it is a good
sign. To dispose by house is the most powerful testimony ; then
by exaltation, then .triplicity, then term, and, lastly, face, which is
a very weak reception.

Double-bodied signs, n , I ,
Dtwsa Leonis, a star of the 2nd magnitude, in the 2nd face of ltJZ,
the nature of ? and ~ , unfortunate, causing unhappiness of mind
and melancholy, or fear of poison. · See Vindemiatrix.
Domal dignity, a planet in its own house.
Dragon's Head, thus marked, ~,is the north node of :D• or when
she crosses the ecliptic into north latitude. It is always a good
symbol, denoting success, a good disposition, &c.
.Dragon's Tail, thus marked, ~, is where the)) crosses the ecliptic
into the south latitude, or her south node. It is very evil, and in
all things the reverse of ~, it diminishes the power of good, and
increases that of evil planets.
Earthy signs, ~, ltJZ, and Vj', which form the Earthy Triplicity.
Earlh, $, the globe which we inhabit, one of the eight Planets,
and the third in order from the 0, and is always in 8 to the orb
of day.
Ecliptic (Celestial), a great circle of the sphere, in which the 0
always appears to move; so called, because eclipses generally
happen when the )) is on or near circle. The obliquity of the
ecliptic is the angle it makes with the equator, which is now about
23° 28'.
Ecliptic (Terrestrial), the line round the Earth comprising the
course of the ll·
Elevati()1J of the pole or star, is its height in degrees above the
horizon.
Elections, are times chosen by art, for facilitating any noble
performance.
Elevation by Latitude, is that planet which has most of two, either
of south or north latitude ; but if the latitude be the same, he that
has least declination is most elevated.
Elevation by Signs, is when a planet is distant from another
according to the succession of the signs.
Elevation by House, is thus: a planet in theM. C. is elevated above
another in nth, 12th, or Ascendant, or in gth, 8th, 7th, 6th, &c.:
a planet in the 8th is elevated above another in the 7th, 6th, sth,

Equation of Time, owing to the irregular motion of the Earth round
the 0, this latter body does not always come to the meridian
exactly 24 hours after its last passage over that point ; but as all
J2 THE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY,

calculations in the old Ephemeres of the places of the planets are


made for the time the 0 was on the meridian (or apparent noon), the
watch is sometimes several minutes before or after the moment.
The difference between the apparent noon, or that time shewn by
the 0, being on the meridian, and the mean noon, or that shewn
by a correct watch, is the Equation of time, which is the angular
dtstance in time between the mean and the true Sun. The amount
to be added to, or taken from, the time shewn by the watch is given
in common Ephemireses for every six days; but, m my Meteorologist,
the Sun is given according to tts siderial time, and in this there
needs neither subtraction nor addition; and all the computations
are according to mean time, and do not need this correction.
El011gation, the greatest distance 11 or ~ can be from the 0.
Embolismic, intercalatory. In every year there are twelve Moons
of 29 days and a half each, and I I days over, and when these odd
days amount to 30, they make an additional, or Embolismic luna·
tion. From these lunations the progression or process is formed,
as every lunation answers to a year of the native's life.
Emersion, a planet coming from under the Sun beams so as to be
seen. It is a term chiefly used in eclipses and occultations.
Enneatical, the ninth. Every ninth year of a person's life, which
being climacterial, is thought to bring with it a change of fortune.
It also signifies the ninth day of a disease, when a change may be
expected.
Ephemeris, a kind of almanack, containing the places of the
Planets, &c. The best is" Simmonite's Meteorologist," in which the
Aspects are also calculated to the minute, an acquisition almost
invaluable to the student of astrology, astronomy, and astra-
meteorology.
Equator, a great circle which separates the northern from the
southern hemisphere; and, being referred to the heavens, is called
the Equinoctial.
Equatorial, of the equator, or a planet, &c., of the equator.
Equinox, equal night ; that time, or place, in the ecliptic where
the days and nights are equal, which happens twice a year: when
the 0 enters ~ and~.
Equinoctial signs, ~ and ~.
Exaltati011, an essential dignity, next in power to that ofthe house.
If a planet be in that sign·wherein he is exalted, you may consider
him essentially strong. If the s.ignificator be in his exaltation, and
no ways impedited, but an&ular, it represents a person of a haughty
condition, arrogant, assummg more to himself than is due.
Face, the sixth part of a sign, or five degrees.
Fall, a planet has its fall in the opposite sign to that in which it
has its exaltation. In horary quesbons, a planet in its fall denotes

Familiarity, any kind of aspect or reception.
Feminine signs, l:S, qz;, l!JZ, 111., !1', and *,these are the even signs.
They are supposed to be weak and feminine on account of their
active and passive qualities, coldness and moisture, and are sup·
posed to render those they govern the same.
Fe1'al, brutish, like a wild beast : such is said to be the dispos-
itions of those whose ascendant is .st, or the last half of t ; or if the
luminaries be in either of them, and the malefics in angles, it
renders them fierce, cruel, and brutish, the J) is also said to be feral,
when she is void of course, having separated from a planet, and
applying to no other while she is in that sign. There does not
appear to be any ground for such an opinion, but this will be the
best decided by experience.
Fie1'y signs, or Fiery triplicity, 'Y', .st, and t.

Ftwtitudes, influences of the planets made stronger by being well
posited.
Forlunes, 21. and ~ and 0, J) and ~ , if aspecting them, and not
afflicted, are considered fortunate planets.
Forlunate signs, 'Y', n, .st, ::!:!: 1 t, :::::. When one of these ascends

his undertakings.
Fouif.ooted signs, 'Y', l:S, .st, t, 11'· Those born when they ascend
are sa1d to have the qualities of such animals, as being bold as the
lion, lustful as the goat, &c.
F1'ust1'ation, the cutting off, or preventing any thing shewn by one
aspect by means of another. Thus, if ~ , lady of the ascendant,
were hastening to the 6. of d' , lord of the 7th, in a question of
marriage, it might denote that the match would take place ; but
if ~ were to form an 8 of d' before ~ reached her 6. of that
planet, it would be a frustration, and would shew that the hopes
of the querent would be cut oft; and if ~ were lord of the 12th, it
might denote that it would be done by a private enemy ; if the 3rd,

Parallel, in the zodiac, arc equal distances from the equator, or
having the same declination, whether of the same name or
opposite. In the world, they arc equal distances from the
meridian, in proportion to the semiarcs of the planets which form
them. The student should pay very particular attention to the
declination of the planets, as the zodiacal parallel is of more
importance than any other aspect. The effect of this position is
exactly tl.e same as that of a close conjunction, but more powerful.
Pars Fortunte, the part of Fortune, $.
Partite, an aspect is partilc when it falls in the same degree and
minute, both with respect to longitude and latitude. Thus ~

Platic, wide, a ray cast from one planet, not to another, butito
some place within its orb. Any aspect which is not partile, or
exact, but only within orbs, or rather within moiety of the two
planets' orbs. As if ? be in 'Y' I0°, and D in ~ 2o0 , the D is still in

Process, the progression.
Procyon, a star of the 1St magnitude, in the sth face of !ZD' the
nature of J and !;! , ami of course violent. It denotes activity, and
sudden preferment by exertion, but· generally causes evil in the end.
ProJection, the progression.
Prohibition, the same as frustration. It indicates the state of two
planets that are significators of some event, or the bringing of some
business to an issue, or conclusion, and are applying•to each other
by conjunction ; but before such conjunction can be formed, a
third planet, by means of a swifter motion, interposes his body,
and destroys the expected conjunction, by forming an aspect him-
self; and this indicates that the matter under contemplation will
be greatly retarded, or utterly prevented.
Promittor, that which promises to fulfil some event. Thus ? and
J are arnetic promittors, and promise to destroy the life of the
native when the hyleg is directed to them; 2f. and ~ are promittors
of good, when directions to them are fulfilled. In horary questions
the planet signifying the event is the promittor, as in a question of
marriage, the lord of the 7th is the promittor.
Propus, a star of the 4th magnitude, in the 2gth degree of n, of
the nature of J, thought to give eminence in life. ·
Prorogator, the apheta.
Pyrois, fiery, a Greek name of i!.
Quadrants, the four quarters of heaven. The two oriental

and 4th to the 1st. In the zodiac the oriental quarters are from
the beginning of 'Y' to the beginning of !ZD, and from the beginning

DEFINITIONS OF TERMS. 21"

Quincunx, a new aspect, containing 5 signs, or 150°. Ptolemy.,


and most others consider it as an inconjunct. It is the opposite
point of the semisextile, and those who hold it to be an aspect,
consider it a good one.
Quintile, is a benefic, but if to the evil planets is of no avail. It
consists of 72°: thus supposing a planet inJ5° of:::::, and another
in 27° of ry>, they are then in qu-tile aspect.
Radical; Radix, th.:! figure at birth is the radix or root from which
every thing is judged; and the term radical refers to it.
Rapt Motion, the apparent diurnal motion of the heavens,
occasioned by the real diurnal motion of$. It was called rapt, or
forcibly carried away, because the stars were supposed to be
forcibly carried round by the motion of the Primum Mobile.
Rapt Parallel, parallels formed by the motion of the Earth on its
axis, where both bodies are rapt or carried away by the same,
until they come to equal distances from the meridian.
Rays, in the common acceptation of the word, a ray is a beam of
light emanating from a star or luminous body; but, in astrology, it
stgnifies a beam of influence or sympathy, which accompanies such
ray, and is supposed only to proceed from a planet. Thus, the
doctrine that the fixed stars emit no rays does not mean that they
emit no light, but that they have no distant influence by aspect,
but only operate with a planet when joined to it, within from 5 to
2° of its body, according to the magnitude of the fixed stars.
Reception, is when two planets are mutually posited in each other's
essential dignities ; as 2+ in rr, and the 0 in QD, where 2+ being in
the exaltation of the 0, and the 0 in the exaltation of 2+, both are
in mutual reception ; or the 0 in ry>, and 2+ in &t,, are in reception,
one by house, the other by triplicity. This is accounted an aspect
of singular amity and agreement.
Rectification, the method of bringing a nativity to its true time, as
it is supposed that the inaccuracy of a clock or watch, or the
mistake of those whose business it is to observe them, may cause
an error in the time of birth, which~requires to be rectified.
Refranation, is when two planets are applying to an aspect, but
before the aspect can be completed one of them turns retrograde,
which, in practice, is fatal to the success of the question.
Retrograde, when any planet is decreasing in longitude. It is a
very great debility.
Retrograde Application, is when both planets are retrograde, and
move contrary to the order of the signs of the zodiac, applying to
each other.
Revolution, the moving round the 0 by the Earth, which makes
the 0 appear to revolve and return to his place at birth once a
year ; very near the time of birth.

Right Distanet, the distance of any place from another by right
ascension, and it is found by subtracting the right ascension of the
preceding from that of the succeeding place, adding 36o0 , if
subtraction cannot be made without. ·
Right Sphere, so called, because all the circles parallel to the
equator make right angles with the horizon, and the celestial bodies
ascend and descend direct : hence it is called a direct sphere.
R11miuaut si!fus, signs that ruminate, or chew the cud : 'Y', ~ , and

stances, form under the Earth from its setting until its rising, is
called its semiarc nocturnal.
Semicircle, half a circle, x8o degrees.
Semiquartife, or Semisquare, this, whether found at birth, or
formed by directional motion, is evil ; but if benefics J+ or ? form
this aspect, the evil influences are only very slight.
Semiquintile, half a quintile, containing 36° in the zodiac, or one-
fifth of a diurnal or nocturnal arc in the world. It is said to be
good because the quintile is good whence it is derived.
Semisextile, this aspect is found to be moderately fortunate and
beneficial in influence. It consists of 30°1 or one sign in the zodiac :
thus, suppose J+ in 4° of 'Y', and ? in 4° of

Separation, when an aspect is past, the planets, &c., are said to


be separating from that aspect ; and observe, that in a nativity the
influence of any aspect to the moderators is more powerful if it be
a few (4 or 5) degrees past, than if it be not yet formed. In Horary
Astrology, when separating shows the influence is passing away,
as application is the sign whereby events are denoted to take place,
and separation denotes what has passed or taken place, whether
good or evil.
Sesquiquadrate, this is unfortunate, and equal in all degrees to the
semisquare. It is a ray of 135°: thus, supposing a star in 19° of
lfj, and another in 4° of 11l• they are in sesquiquadrate aspect.
Sesquiquintile, 108°: see "Tresile."

a * in a sign of long ascension will have the same effect as a o.
Signs of Short Ascension, ltj, :::::, *• 'Y', ~, n ; so called, because
they ascend in a shorter period of time than the others, from the
diurnal motion of the Earth, being, when they ascend, nearly
parallel with its orbit. A 1::., in a sign of short ascension, is,
according to Ptolemy, equal to a o in its effects; but, long or short
ascensions are mundane, and not zodiacal positions: for all signs

Stationary, when a planet is in its station and appears to stand
still. The lights are never stationary.
Stellium, a crowd of planets in an angle. Persons having this
in their radix have, at some period in the course of their lives,
prodigious good or ill fortune. So far as my observation extends,
a stellium of four or five planets in any part of the radix always

Table of Houses, these are necessary to erect a figure of the


heavens.
Taurus, it is an earthy, cold, dry, melancholy, feminine, nocturnal,
fixed, bestial sign, of the Earthy triplicity, and south.
Term, terms are certain degrees in a sign, supposed to possess
the power of altering the nature of a planet to that of the planet in
the term of which it is posited.
Terminus Vita, the termination of life, the fatal direction, or
directions, that inevitably punish.
Testimony, having any aspect or dignity, &c., or being in any way
in operation in the figure as regards the question asked.
Tetragonus, the square aspect.
Thema Oteli, a figure of the heavens.
Transits, these are the planets passing over the place of any
moderator or planet, or their aspects, either in the radix, or
revolution, &c., by any other body.
Translation of Light, the conveying the influence of one planet to
another, by separating from the aspect of one and giving to the
aspect of another. It is a very powerful testimony. Let ? be
placed in 20° of 'Y', ~ in r J 0 , and 3 in 14°, of the same sign ; here
3 separates from a d with ~, and translates the light and nature
of that planet to ? , to whom he next applies.
Triplicity, Trigon, an essential dignity. The zodiac is divided
into four trigons or triplicities; the fiery 'Y', 5\,, I ; the earthy, M,
*;
li.Jt., 1r)' ; the airy, n , ~, :::: ; and the watery, ~. 111.,
with the four elements into which the ancients divide the natural
agreeing
world.
Trigonocrators, rulers of trigons. The 0 and ~ rule the fiery;
~ and the D• the earthy ; W and ~ , the a~ry ; and 3 alone the
watery, though the moderns have united ~ and the D with him
in the watery triplicity.
Trimorian, the distance of three signs, or the square aspect.
Trine ( .t:. ), a distance of four signs, or 1201', in the zodiac. In the
Earth it is the whole of a semiarc and the third of another. It is
reckoned the best aspect of the whole, though I own I have some
doubts about this.
Tropical Signs, ~ and~. so called, because they limit the course ·
of the 0, which after he has arrived at their first points, seems to
turn and to diminish his declination; causing summer by the turn
he makes in ~, and winter by that which makes in lrj>. ·
True Moment of Birth, that wherein the child becomes independent
of the mother, and the lungs are inflated.
Tresile, a quintile and a half, or 3 signs and 18° in the zodiac, or
a whole semiarc and one-fifth of another in the world. It is said
to be good, becau~c the quintilc is good, on which it is founded.

DEFINITIONS OF TERMS, 27

fixed stars, which they say, render that place extremely unfortunate,
particularly to the D• who suffers there as n1uch as during an
eclipse. ·
Violent Signs, those that are the houses or exaltations of the
malefics, viz. 'Y', :!!: , lfl., ~, and ::::. Also those signs are called
violent where there are are any remarkably violent fixed stars, as
M for caput Algol, &c.
Virgo, an earthy, cold, melancholy, barren, feminine, nocturnal
sign; of the earthy triplicity.
Void of Course, forming no aspect in the sign the significator then
is. When the D is so, it denotes in general no success in the

It is reckoned four debilities. In horary questions it is reckoned
fear, trouble, and oppression, but not so bad as combustion.
Unfortunate Signs, M, s;, ~. lfl., and 7E. The natives are said to
be unfortunate in the general tendency of the events of their lives.
The most unfortunate of them all is ~.

Zenith, the point directly over head. Thus, every place has its
own zenith, and the nearer the planets are to that zenith, the more
powerful is their operation.
Zodiac, a kind of circle, or rather belt, 12° broad, with the ecliptic
passing through the middle of it. It contains the 12 signs of the
ecliptic, all of which being animals, it takes its name from them.
Modern astronomers consider it as 18° broad, on account of the
extensive latitude of J' and ~ .
Zodiacal Aspects, aspects measured by the degrees of the zodiac.
In this case the promittor's place is taken without latitude, instead
of which the latitude is taken which the significator will have when
it arrives at the place where the aspect is formed.
Zodiacal Parallels, see "Parallels."

he is impudent in mischief; if Sun, he accounts it his glory, yet


Sun much meliorates the manners of the native, and makes him

honor of them; if moon be here, the man is more worthy, but very
mutable in his resolves ; if Jupiter the man is honestly religious,
and sober.

self-esteem.
CuL. Preferment in armies; and makes a commander, the

at the court, the displeasure of his king, &c.
104 Asc. From 25 to 30 degrees, signifies an active turbulent
spirited person, aiming at great things, through his own prudence,

weighing matters, incredulous, believing nothing but what he
knows, nor trusting farther than he tries.

studies which he prosecutes ; he proves a good physician, surgeon,
or chemist ; if Sun or Moon be there, he is preferred to the service
of great men, and becomes eminently famous; if Jupiter be there,
he rises by the means of clergymen, and proves an honour to his
benefactor; if Venus, by the means of a lady; but if Saturn be
there, notwithstanding all his parts, and all his deserts, he falls
tmder the frowns of fortune. ·

164 Mars when well dignified, produces a fearless, violent, irasci-
ble, and unsubmitting person, naturally delighting in war, or
contention, but, in other respects, prudent, rational, and even
generous or magnanimous.
yiJALITY O'fo' THE PI.ANKTS. 51
Whm ut~forlunately dignified, the native is wholly destitute of any
virtue, prone to violence, boasting, quarrels, proud, treachery,
robbery, murder treason, and every species of cruelty and wicked-
ness.
OF THE SUN, 0.
165 Sol when well dignified, the disposition is noble, magnanimous,
yet proud and lofty, but humane, a faithful fnend, and a generous
enemy, scorning to use advantages which may be given over to his

ficent, fond of dress, ornaments, and decorations of all sorts,
extremely partial to costly jewels and splendid attire.

of being exquisite m every science, desirous to travel and see foreign
parts, of unwearied fancy, curious in occult knowledge.
Whe" ill dignified, the native is a phrenetic person, his tongue and
pen against every man, wholly bent to fool his estate and time in
loquacity and trying nice conclusions to no purpose, a great liar,
boaster, prattler, busybody, newsmonger, false, a tale carrier, easy
of belief, constant in no place or opinon, pretending all manner of
knowledge, but void of learning, a trifler; if the native prove a
divine, then a mere verbal person, frothy, of no judgment, easily
perverted, constant in nothing but idle words and bragging.

sets, and is called the western angle; at N, the Sun is on the nadir,
corresponding to midnight, being the opposite point the Sun
possesses at noon. Angles are of the greatest power ; the Suc-
ceedent, and lastly, Cadents are the weakest. The 1oth is the
South ang!e, the Ist the East angle, the 7th the West angle, and
the 4th the North angle.

THE FOURTH HOUSE.


This influences the native's father, and his property m land or

THE FIFTH HOUSE.
This affects his children, and the good or evil he may receive
thereby, and speculations.
THE SIXTH HOUSE.
This will shew the nature of the disease to which the native 1s
subject, servants and tenants.
THE SEVENTH HOUSE.
This has influence on the native's marriage, lawsuits.
THE EIGHTH HOUSE.
This points out, in part, the quality of the native's death, legacy.
THE NINTH HOUSE,
This has to do with the native's distant voyages, and pursuits in
science, law, religion.
THE TENTH HOUSE.
This has much influence on his credit, and on his trade, pro-
fession, or employment, honor, and notoriety.
THE ELEVENTH HOUSE.
This will shew the character of his friends, whether true or false.
THE TWELFTH HOUSE.
This is the house of private enemies, and according to the quality
of the planets therein, will the native meet with persons to do him
secret mischief.
N .B.-Too great stress of dependence must not be put upon the
symbolical signification of the houses, although you may judge to
a great extent similar to examples. They have more signification
and effects in Nativities than are generally allowed them.

CHAPTER XII.

QUALITIES AND EFFECTS OF THE ASPECTS.

The planetary orbs, in the course of their revolution through the


ethereal fields of boundless space, perpetually form certain config-
urations or aspects with each other, by which their influence is not
only hastened or impeded, but also modified or augmented, for
some are malignant, and others benevolent. -
200 The Bentftc Aspects are the semisextile, the sextile, the
quintile, the trine, the trecile, and the biquintile. When planets
are situated at these distances from each other, they operate
beneficially for the nativ~ ; and if the aspect be not yet complete
at the birth, but may be wanting a few degrees, then the aspect is
less powerful ; but it will be found to take effect at that period of
life at which the arc of direction becomes complete. If the aspect
be past, the planet which, by its more speedy motion, is separating
frem the other, will still retain the effect of the aspect until it has
separated several degrees.
201 The Malefic Aspects are the semiquartile, the square, the
J sesquisquare, and the opposition.
When planets are found at the distances which constitutes these
aspects, they are evilly for the native. When the more speedy

~
planet is wanting a few degrees completing a perfect aspect, then
the influence is only approaching, and the more powerful effect will
be felt when the angle is complete. But if the aspect be separating,
then the influence is diminishing or passing away.
74 THE ARCANA 01' PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY.

FIG. 6.

Q E
THE CONJUNCTION.
202 This is when two planets are in the same degree and minute
of a sign. This aspect is found to be good with good planets and
good aspects (2oo), but evil with evil planets and evil aspects (201).
1ts effects are .strong in all cases. From D to A is a conjunction.
THE SEMISEXTILE, 80 DEGREES.
203 This is found to be moderately fortunate and of beneficial
influence. It consists of 30 degrees, one sign in the zodiac, or the
space of one house in mundo, as the angle FED D, and this is aS*
from M.C., and a *from F ED B.
'fHE SEMIQUINTILE, 86 DEGREES.
204 This is half a quintile, 36 degrees in the zodiac, or the one·
fifth of a diurnal or a nocturnal arc in the world, as the space
between D e H. This is an aspect to the midheaven as it stands
in the preceding figure.
THE NONOGON, 40 DEGREES.
205 An aspect of some importance, forming a polygon pf nine .
equal sides, as the angle N, (B C. .
THE SEMISQUARE, 46 DEGREES. . .
2o6 This aspect, whether found at birth or formed by directional
motion, is evil; but if Jupiter or Venus form this upect, the evil ,
i~flrcnce is only very slight; the angle S ED E is the space of the
arc, ·
THE SEXTILE, 60 DEGREES.
207 This .is a powerful benefic aspect, of 6o degrees, or two ligna ·
in the zodiac, or :z houses in mundo, as the angle F $ B.

THE QUINTILE, 72 DEGREES.
208 This is a benefic aspect, but if to evil planets is not im-
portant; as the angle B $ Q.
TH~ QUARTILE, SQUARE, OR QUADRATE, 90 DEGREES

2og This is powerfully evil, it is go degrees in the zodiac, or 3


signs ; it is 3 houses in the world, and forms a figure of 4 equal
sides, B $E.
THE SESQUIQUINTILE, OR TRECILE, 108 DEGREES.

210 This a quintile and a half, containing 108 degrees in the


zadiac, or a whole semiarc and one-fifth of another in the world ;
it is good, because the quintile is good on which it is found.
THE TRINE, 120 DEGREES.
2II This is the most powerful of the good aspects. It is 120
degrees in the zodiac, and the space of 4 houses in the world ; the
space of the great sphere from F round D and H to C.
THE SESQUISQUARE OR SESQUIQUADRATE,l35 DEGREES.

212 This is unfortunate,_and equal in all respects to the semi-


square \7), occupying the space from D round H and C to S.
THE BIQUINTILE, 144 DEGREES.

213 This is found to produce fortunate effects when with good


plaD;ets, and when with evil planets its influence is not important
(7)·
THE QUINCUNX, 150 DEGREES.
214 This aspect is as powerful as the semisextile, good with good,
and evil with evil planets ; it is the space of 5 houses, as from. F
round B to E.
THE OPPOSITION, 1e0 DEGREES.

215 This is most powerfully evil \7)· D A$ toE orB $ C.


THE ZODIACAL PARALLEL.

216 Thi~ signifies a parallel distance from the equator, or being


in the same degree of.declination, and whether of the same name,
North or South, is of no different effect. Thus, supposing a planet
13 degrees North and another 13 degrees South, they would be in
parallel zodiacal. Great attention must be paid to this aspect, for
1t is the most important and powerful, stronger than a conjunction
in every respect. (See page 18).

CHAPTER XIII.
OF MUNDANE ASPECTS.

217 The next to be observed and duly considered is the mundane


aspects, or those formed by the diurnal motion of the Earth round
its axis, whereby every star is brought, at stated periods, to the
cusp of each house, by which they are formed in due succession;
thus forming various aspects or configurations as well with each
other as with the angles of the ascending or descending horizon, the
zenith, nadir {I97)· In order to explain them at one view to the
attentive student, the followin~ diagram is inserted, which will
contain a complete exemplification of the mundane configurations
or different aspects. In nativities these are measured by the semi·
arcs of the planets. Thus, a semisextile is one house, or one-third
of a semiarc (203); a semiquintile is I one-fifth house, or two-fifths
of a semiarc (204); a nonogon is I one-third house, or five-fiths of
a semiarc (2o5); a semisquare, or I! house, or one-half of a semi-
arc (206); a sextile is 2 houses, or two thirds of the semiarc (207);
a quintife or four-fifths of the semiarc (2o8); a square, 3 houses, is
the whole semiarc (209) ; a sesquiq.uintlle, the whole semiarc and
one-fifth of another (2Io); the tnne, 4 houses or four-thirds of a
semiarc t2II); a sesquisquare, 4l houses nine sixths, or Ii semi-
arc (212); a biquintile is eight-fifths of the semiarc; a quincunx is
.s houses five-thirds of the semi_a rc; the opposition, 6 houses.
The mundane parallel is an equal distance {tom the meridiaa.
OP MUNDANE ASPECTS. 17
::uS N.B.-When one mundane aspect is found, others may be
derived therefrom, as the quintile inay be found from the sextile, or
from the square, as it is one-fifth of the sextile more than the
sextile either war., and one-fifth of the square less than the square.
Thus, if the sextde be 6o degrees, the quintile will be 72 degrees,
which is one-fifth more ; and if the square be go degrees, the
quintile will be 72 degrees, which is one-fifth less. •
219 The sesquisquare may be taken either from the trine or from
the opposition, because if one-sixth of a semiarc more than the
trine, and one half of a semiarc less than the opposition.
220 The biquintile ~ay also be found from the trine or the
oppoSition ; it is two-fifths of the sextile of that semiarc where the
planet is posited more than the trine, and three-fifths of the same
sextile less than the opposition, &c., &c.
221 If the planet has to pass over part of semidiurnal and semi-
nocturnal arcs to form any of these aspects, take the original aspect
behind it, and bring from the aspect required.

CHAPTER XIV.
A DESIDERATUM AND DEMONSTRATION OF THE ASPECTS.

222 The Equator is a Great Circle of the Sphere, and all circles,
great or small, are divided into 360 degrees; the space occupied
by each degree, is in proportion to the whole circle. The number
may appear arbitrary, and might have been more or less than 36o,
but this number is nearly equal to the Sun's motion, a degree for a
day, or a day for a year.
223 These 36o degrees are divided into 12 signs, which are not
arbitrary, but irrevocably fixed by a certain unerring Law of
Nature, which law was discovered by no other means than that of
simultaneous observation. The Sun, the grand regulator of all
time, makes his return to the first point of Aries once in little more
than 365 days, and this number of days is the boundary of a year;
it was indespensably necessary that the great circle of the zodiac
should be divided mto larger portions, not only for the measure of
but also for the notation of the planets' places. Those larger
portions are made up by the number of degrees <;ontained between
two lunations. For the Moon occupies 27 days 7 hours and 43
minutes, in moving from any certain degree of any sign, in con-
j Jnction with Sol, to reaching that degree again-the Sun, moving
about a degree a day, will have gone nearly 28 degrees from the
A DESIDERATUM AND DEMONSTRATION OF T'HE ASPBCTS. 79

degree of conjunction, so that the Moon will be nearly two days


more ere she comes up to the Sun, during which time Sol will be
gone two more degrees: hence, the Sun generally goes about 30
degrees during a lunation, of which there are twelve each year,
and from which we have our twelve signs, as proportions for a
convenient division of the Zodiac.
There is, perhaps, a danger in dwelling too exclusively on these
laws, lest we should forget that, after all, they are only expressions
of the mode in which the Creator is constantly acting on the
universe. This tendency has shewn itself among all philosophers.
It is sufficient, say they, to suppose matter endowed with certain
properties for us to account for all its actions. This is true, so far
as it goes ; but whence the properties ? Whence matter itself?
Their existence cannot be satisfactorily accouuted for, except by
regarding them as dependent upon the will of the Creator. And
if that will underwent a change-if the supporting, guiding, and
controlling hand were withdrawn but for an instant-the whole
fabric of the universe must fall into confusion. The Deity has,
by creating his materials, endued with certain fixed qualities and
powers, impressed them in their origin with the spirit, not the letter,
of His law, and made all their subsequent combinations and relations
inevitable consequences of this first impression ; but the continued
existence of these materials, and the various actions they perform,
are but the manifestations of the continuance of the same mode of
operation.
224 The next Division is the limitation of aspects, which are
primarily in number five, namely, conjunction, sex tile, square, trine,
and opposition; and inferior or new aspects, which are (Chap. 1.)
nine, namely, semisextile, decile, nonogon, semisquare, quintile,
sesquiquintile, sesquisquare, biquintile, and quincunx. Most of
the latter class of aspects were discovered by the immortal Kepler,
one of the ablest astronomers that ever hved. Every aspect is
either an exact angle, or supplemental angle, which may be inscribed
in a spherical polygon. These are made from all .parts of the zodiac,
by th~ motion of the planets. These configurations have a direct
reference to form only, and not so much respecting the straight
beams of light which flow from every star, as how their beams
arithmetically and geometrically meet at the Earth, and thus pour
an influx of light and electrj.c matter upon our atmosphere. Al•.
though in every degree of the circle the planets emit their rays to
all other parts they behold, by which any two stars, intercepting an
arc in the zodiac, and making an angle at the Earth, seem to make
an aspect among themselves, independently of the Earth; notwith-
standing the ancients had respect only to the above five aspects.
225 To confirm the virtues and effects of these aspects, we need
only consider what all philosophical and nature-actmg fhysicians
are taught by experience, name:y, that the crisis o all acute
L
8o THE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPH\',

diseases has a palpable and extraordinary sympathy with all the


major configurations of the Moon, made to her place at the be-
ginning of the disease. Again, if the Moon's motion with respect
to the tides ; the spring tides, or high floods, at the conjunction
and opposition to the Sun ; the neaps and lowest tides are caused
by her quarters ; and it is equally remarkable that the seas, in their
daily ebbing and flowing upon every coast, have respect only to
such azimuthal circles as in quartile position wh~n the Moon passes
by them. Again, the Sun most evidently manifests great effects by
the quartile aspects, since he modifies and governs the vicissitudes
of seasons, for as when he enters Aries, the first equinoctial sign,
the days and nights are equal all the world over, and increasing in
our northern hemisphere ; so when he re-enters they so happen
again, so also when he reaches the opposite point-when he arrives
at Cancer in square thereto, then occur our longest days and
shortest nights, and vice versa when he arrives at the opposite
degree in Capricorn.
We now hasten to shew, by geometrical demonstration, the
reason why these nature· acting irradiations of the planets are more
effecting-influential gravitating action than anyother.

FIG. 7.

226 Ctmjunction and Opposititm demo1•strated. Wetake it for granted


that an union of ray must either afford greater influence, or mitigate
by amalgamation ; it must be allowed that the conjunction and -
opposition are the most powerful configurations, shewn · by the
annexed figure, in which we find the beams, both incident and
reflected, to be united.
Let A be in conjunction with Herschel, it is manifest that the
beams flowing from Herschel to $ must, of necessity, unite them·
selves with the rays sent from Herschel, and so JOintly convey
their virtue to e. Secondly, in this we observe the beams fA,
A I)JtSIDERA'l'tht A~D DIUfONS~RA'l'ION OP 'l'HE ASPRCTS. 8t
or AED, would come from the centre of the planets, reflects only
into itself, as being perpendicular. ·
227 The conjunction is either good or evil, according to the
~n~e~ent pro~rt~es of ~he planets' atmo~p~e~es1 whe~he_r they are
m1m1cal or comc1dent w1th each other ; 1f m1m1cal, 1t 1s evil · if
coincident, it is good. This may be demonstrated by almost ev~ry
thing in nature; as the dictates of reason and experience corroborate.
The union of rays that happen in an opposition is manifest, as the
beams sent from A to E9 must meet with, and join, the beams of a
planet at I, and so jointly convey, through ethereal space, their
virtue to the $, and this union IS manifest that the beams sent
from opposite points make one right line.
228 The Senile, Tri~M, and Semisextiledemonstrated. These configur-.
ations have a concurrence of their beams at the $,and a mutual
reflection of the one into the other, and so an union by reflection is
manifest. Admit at the points placed W, 7 , 2f., and ~-then 2f. .
and '? in *-then W and 2f. in o -and '? and W in S
forasmuch as '? E9, the beam incident of the *, *; then,
falls obliquely in
respect of W E9, and makes an acute angle therewith, and '? re-
flects to W, and is united to 7 $, the incident of 7 , which 1s in
trine to 2f. ; and '? strikes his beams to 2f., and then ? and 2f. .
strike down their rays to the $, hence we are inflnenced by them
reciprocally.
229 The Square, Semisquare, Sesquisquare, &c., demonstrated. The
square, W2f., is nothing more than the AB which cuts the reflective
angle W E9 2f.. The right angular figure, W $ 2f., whose beams
incident and opposite traverse the centre of tbe earth ; in the semi-
square, B ~ $,the ray is reflected to $ from ~ ; and from W to
~ , in the angle ~ E9 W. The inferior aspects are found and
demonstrated as those are on which they are founded, and from
which they are formed. (See fig. 6, &c.)
230 From the foregoing considerations, it is evident that the
efficient power of the stars is deduced from their peculiar, pro·
portional distances, and these effects are satisfactorily founded,
both upon philosophical and mathemetical principles, as well as
by experimental facts, which, although apparently inexplicable,
may easily be comprehended and thoroughly understood. And I
may be allowed to say, there are many simple things in nature,
whtch are known from experience, that are inexplicable by man in
the present stage of philosophy. Metaphysicians agree that mind
acts upon matter, but they cannot explain how it acts. We know
from experience that the mariner's needle always points to the
North pole, but how or by what means we cannot tell. We might
offer on opinion, but in this work we forbear-Science may some
day develop these present mysteries.

PRELIMINARY REMARKS.
232.-0RBS OF APPLICATION.
Orb is that distance round a planet to which its influence more
particularly extends. We frequently make use of the term "within
orbs," by which we mean that the aspect is not complete, but that
the influence of the aspect is felt. The inferior planets apply to
the superior ; the superior never to the inferior, except the inferior
be retrograde.
It is reasonable to expect the nearer an exact aspect the more
powerful the effect, either good or evil ; but as the aspect goes off
1t gradually becomes weaker till the aspect is at an end.
• For the explanation of these Terms, see Chap. II., for full and concise
definitiOPS, together with the foregoing Table.
84 TliE AkCANA OP.PkACTICAL ASTRAL PUILoSOPHV.

It very seldom occurs that, at the time for which a figure is


erected, all the aspects that appear are each perfectly composed of
their exact number of degrees, in such case; they are still in aspect
as long as they continue within the moiety, or equal half part of
their united orbs. This is ~ailed a Platic aspect, which is of less
importance and powerful in influence than the exact aspect, which
is termed a Partile or perfect aspect. .
The number of degrees each planet extends an influence around
its body is-
li s degree!',
W 7 degrees,
I 21. 9 degrees,
3 7 degrees,
I ~ 7 degrees,
~ 7 degrees,
? 9 degrees, 0 IS degrees, ]) 12 degrees.
Thus 13f, who is placed top of the table, applies to no planet
except when r:etrograde; ? applies only to Wand Herschel, and
so of the rest in order, as before exemplified, where it may be seen
that the ]), being the last, applies to every other pla~et ; but no
planet to her aspect unless retrograde.
It is necessary to observe in these platic Aspects, whether the
co-operation of the two planets is going off or coming on, as that
will materially affect the matter under consideration. (201).
RULE.-Add the orbs of the two planets together, and one half
of the sum taken ; if the planets be beyond that distance, they are
not even in platic aspect.
ExAMPLE-Suppose ? in IS degrees of 'Y' and ~ in 10 degrees,
they are then in platic aspect, for the orb of ? is 9° and that of ~
7° plus 9=16, the half of which is 8 degrees, so they are within
orbs at 8 degrees distant, and in like manner of the other planets.
The Planet Neptune.-This planet has only been known for a
comparatively short time. From my own Radix I have found it to
be very much after the nature of the planet Herschel, and to have
a controlling influence over the minds of those who have to do
much with persons who believe in the Art and Science of Astrology,
dreams, inspirations, &c. Students will have a very good oppor-
tunity !o watch the influence of N e~tune during its progress through
Gemm1, the house of Mercury, wh1ch rules London and a great
part of the United States as well as other places shewn by
Simmonite's Prognostic Astronomy, or Horary Astrology. Taurus
rules Ireland, and Dublin particularly. It is well known to the
world what happened on May 6th, 1882, in Dublin, and the state
of confusion that has reigned in Ireland generally since that time
(see Raphael's Ephemeris for that date). Students, let your own
study and observation be your guide with regard to ·the planet
Neptune. I look forward to some notable inventions in arts and
science being brought to light during the progress of Neptune
through Gemini.

233 After due attention to the preceding indispensable instruc-
tions, the doctrine of the invaluable genethliacal prognostications
must be minutely and philosophically considered, for the sake of
order and perspicuity, in its successive heads of enquiry. It will
thus be found to present a mode at once feasible, practicable, com-
petent, and agreeable to nature.

osophical agencies derived from simple and harmonious primal
Nature herself.

ONENESS OF CAUSES AND EFFECTS.


236 It must be remembered that all causes, by which all effects,
whether general or particular, are produced and foreknown, are
essentially one and the same. The motion of the planets present
the operative causation of events which happen to any individual,
as well as to those which happen generally; and the foreknowledge
of both may be obtained by the same accurate observation of the
distinct nature9' of the several substances, subjected to the in-
fluences of the heavenly bodies. Still, however, the causes of
general events are often more great than those of particulat e'l{en.ts.
86 THE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL AST.RAL PHILOSOPHY.

GENERAL EVENTS.
237 In reference to general events, the data and origin are multi-
farious; for all general events cannot always be traced to one
origin, always considered by means of matter subjected to their
operations, for it may also be established by circumstances
occurring in the Ambient (page 4), and presenting the symbolical
causation.
PARTICULAR EVENTS.
238 Particular events, however, which concern men individually,
can be traced to one origin, on a single featured cause. Their
origin is !-ingle, in respect to the primary composition of the nascent
man ; but it is also manifold, in regard to other circumstances
subsequently indicated by disposition in the Ambient, correlatively
to the primary origin. In all particular events, the origin, or birth,
of the subject-matter of itself, must, of course, be the primary
origin ; and in succession thereto, the various beginnings of other
subsequent circumstances are to be assumed. Hence, therefore,
at the origin of the subject matter, all the properties and peculiari-
ties of its contemperament must be observed; then the subsequent
events, which will happen at certain periods, sooner or later, are
to be cono;idered by means of the division of time, or arcs of
directions.
EVENTS CONSISTENT.
239 Events are, from their commencement, always in conformity
with the spiritual and corporeal faculties, and their occasional
affections. In connection with man's body, these events are also
applicable to his estate, and his conjugal cohabitations ; in
connection with his spirit, these relate to his honour, rank, and
notoriety.

CHAPTER XVI.
OF THE HYLEGICAL PLACES.
240 The Hylegical places are from 5 degrees above the xst house
to 25 degrees below, measured by oblique ascension-the whole of
the I xth, xoth, and gth houses-also from 5 degrees above the 8th
to 5 degrees below the 7th, all calculated by oblique ascension.
241 No degrees under the earth are eligible to the rule of hyleg-
ical locus-consequently neither the limits of the 12th, 2nd, 3rd,
4th, 5th, 6th, or 8th house, are taken for the hylegical places.
OF THE HYLEG, OR GIVER OF LIF~.

242 The hyleg, or giver of life is, xst, the Sun by day, if found
in any of the hylegical places-2nd, the Moon by noght, if she be so ~

found (240), when the Sun is not-3rd, the degree ascending*


becomes hyleg, if neither of the luminaries is in the hylegical
places--4th, if neither Sun nor Moon be so situated, that planet
will be hyleg which has niost dignities in the last full Moon, pro-
vided it be in an Aphetical place ; but it must be dignified at least
three ways. If there be no such planet, and a new Moon last
preceded birth, take the degree ascending. If both the luminaries
be posited in a prorogatory place, then take that which appears
the most importantly situated.
N.B.-This last sentence scarcely needs be noticed; because, if
the Moon be in any of the hylegical places by day, it will generally
be found that the Sun is also in one of those places ; and by night,
the Sun never can be in a hylegical place, because he is then under
the earth (241). Some may be ready to say that Herschel, Saturn,
nor Mars cannot be apheta, because they are generally anareta, or
the destroying planets-on this argument the Sun cannot, with
propriety, be chosen as both Giver of Life and Destroyer of Life,
and sometimes he is anareta (243).
OF THE ANARETIC PLANETS.
243 The Anaretic planets, by nature, are those of Herschel,
Saturn, and Mars ; but in some particular cases the Sun, Moon,
and Mercury will kill. The Sun in particular will kill when the
Ascendant or Moon is hyleg (246). The anaretic places are as
No. 241. ·
244 . To occasion death, the hyleg must be afflicted by P. d , o,
or 8, or any other evil aspect (2o1) to the anaretical stars, and
these must be afflicted of themselves, for life will be preserved, if,
at the same time, the hyleg be aspected by Jupiter, or within 12
degrees, or within 8 degrees of Venus. But the aspect of Venus or
Jupiter must be approaching. The opposition or square of Venus
or Jupiter will frequently save life when they fall amidst a train of
evil directions. In like manner will the life be preserved if the
anaretic planets have not the same latitude as the hyleg; so also
if the killing planet have great latitude.
245 When there are two or more testimonies for death, and two
or more for life, then due observation must be made to ascertain
which party surpasses the other, in power as well as number.
The pre-eminence in number will be obvious ; but for pre-
eminence in power it must be seen whether the destroyers or
preservers are in places strong or weak; and especially whether
those on the one side may be oriental, either with the Sun or of the
figure, and the other occidental. Oriental between rst and roth
Occidental between roth and 7th.
• I have found the Sun, Moon, and Ascendant to be chief significators in the
prorogatory prerogatives, only I place them as above, for the easy reference of
those who consider that the other significators hav..! effect.
M
88 THE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY,

246 No planet under the Sun's beams has power either to kill or
save, unless when the Moon is hyleg, in which case, the place
of the Sun being affiicted by a malefic planet joined to it, and
receiving no help from Jupiter or Venus, will certainly produce
death. This rule must be particularly attended to, because, even
though the Moon be not hyleg, the Sun becomes anaretic, if
shackled by simultaneous presence of Saturn, Herschel, or Mars,
and not restored to freedom of operation by Jupiter or Venus (244).
OF THE DURATION OF LIFE.
In order to complete the investigation of circumstances taking
place simultaneously with the birth, or immediately consequent
thereon, is, whether the child, then born, will be reared or not.
247 Of all events, which take place immediately after birth, the
chief is the duration of life ; for it is useless to consider events
contingent on the birth, if the duration of life is very short ; and
the discussion of this enquiry is by no means simple and easy of
execution. This depends on the hylegical places, rulers thereof,
and the disposition of the anaretic places.
248 See if the hyleg be strong and free from the malignant rays
of Herschel, Saturn, or Mars ; for, according to the strength and .
fortitude of the hyleg, so will be the radical constitution and con-
comitant effects. ·
249 If the hyleg be much affiicted, the child dies in its infantine
state. If either the Sun or Moon be angular, and if only one of the
malefics be in conjunction of the Sun or Moon. Or, if the malefic
be in exactly equal zodiacal space between the Sun and Moon, while
no benefic star partake in the configuration, and at the same time
the rulers of the Sun and Moon be controlled by either Herschel,
Saturn, or Mars, the child then born will die in its infancy, or under
5 years old (26o).
250 Shoufd not the configuration of the Sun or Moon and malefic
planet exist precisely in the mode last mentioned, but that the
rays of two of the malefics be bad to the Sun or Moon, or one
malefic affiict both Sun and Moon, then, in these cases, no
duration of life will be allotted to the child.
251 The Sun, Moon, and Ascendant all Affiicted, the evil planets
angular, tneir ill aspects close, and there be no assistance to the
· hyleg by the good planets, the child will die in infancy, except
Jupiter be within 12 degrees, or Venus within 8 degrees of the
anaretic point ; yet if the evil predominate, the constitution will be
weak, and the first train of evil directions will destroy.
252 The child will be born almost dead if the malefics are in
opposition, and the Sun and Moon in opposition, and the malefics
being, at the same time, in square to both Sun and Moon, this is
properly called a double opposition. If a double opposition should
exist, but the Sun and Moon separating, and the planets Jupiter
and Venus preceding the Sun or Moon, the child will th~ liye,
. , 6P THE DURATION OP LIFE •

but will frequently be weakly, and the first ill aspect, between the
hyleg and the anaretic, will kill.
253 Mars is exceedingly pernicious when succeeding the Sun1
and Saturn when succeeding the Moon. But an opposite effect
takes place when either Herschel, Saturn, or Mars is in opposition
of the Sun or Moon, the malefics elevated aboye the lights ; for the
Sun will then be afflicted by Saturn, and the Moon by Mars ; and
more especially if the planets should have dignities in th9se signs
in which the Sun, Moon, and Ascendant are.
254 The hyleg affiicted by aspect, and at the same time assisted
by powerful rays of the benefics, life will be in danger under
operating directions, but may be preserved by great caution.
255 The Sun or Moon in conjunction, P., Square, or opposition
of Herschel, Saturn, ot Mars, the native's constitution will be
weak; and if the malefics be joined with the hyleg, the native will
be very liable to illness all through life. Saturn, in the xoth, in
square to the hyleg, the native will suffer greatly from ill health,
especially if Saturn receive ill aspects of Herschel or Mars; except
very powerful aspects of the benefics counteract, by aspecting both
the hyleg and Saturn.
256 The hyleg being well aspected by Venus or Jupiter, and
not aftlicted by Herschel, Saturn, or Mars, then will the health be
good, the constitution strong, and the native will live to a good old
age.
257 Venus, ascending at birth, strengthens the constitution, but
she gives such a strong inclination for pleasure, that the native
often injures his health in its pursuit.
258 The Moon, nearly in conjunction of the Sun, the native will
be of a weakly constitution, and if not very well aspected, and the
hyleg not strong, of very short life. Persons born during an eclipse
of the Sun, and Moon nearly in a direct line with the Sun, are
invariably very weakly, and never live many years.
259 The Moon has, at all times, much to do with the stamina of
the native's constittJtion; and if she be much afflicted, health will
rarely be good. .
26o Children dying before 5 years of age are destroyed by the
violent positions of the Sun and Moon at the time of birth-when
both Jupiter and Venus are afflicted-and Herschel, Saturn, or
Mars, rule the places of the Sun and Moon, and afflict them (249).
These are evil positions, they must kill.
The Moon in conjunction with Herschel ; Saturn and Mars, in
the 6th, 8th, or 12th houses ; or Herschel, Saturn, and Mars in the

gO THE ARCASA Of!' i>RACTICAL AS1'RAL PHILOSOPHY•

· 261 If the hyleg be joined with Jupiter or Venus, the constitution


is strengthened thereby ; but if it be the Sun who is hyleg, his
conjunction with Jupiter and Venus destroys the benefic's power to
do good, in a great measure, and that benefic's favourable aspects
to the Moon, M. C., (B, or ascendant, are of less avail. Ifthe hyleg,
at birth, have Jupiter or Venus within 36 and 48 degrees, the
health will be benefited.
262 The last aspect of the Sun and Moon with each other must
be duly considered.

FORM AND TEMPEkAMENT OF THE PLANKTS.

CHAPTER XVII.
OF THE FORM AND TEMPERAMENT OF THJ; PLANETS.

263 Consider the face ascending, and its FACK chiefly, for that
will generally describe the native ; also notice the planets in the
ascendant, and all those which throw an aspect to the cusp of the
1st, or its ruler, and make a judicious mixture.
264 Pay particular care to the Moon, how she is aspected-the
parallels of declination will have an effect when within 5 degrees,
especially if the swiftest planet is applying. For from the faces
ascending the planets thereon, and the Moon the conformation of
the body is inferred.
265 Mark all planets in"aspect to that which has dominion over
the ISt, and all those which are aspecting the ruler of the 1st or the
Moon; but if no planet be in the 1st, nor aspect its ruler, then
judge wholly by the face ascending.
266 If the ruler of the ascendant be R, or in detriment or fall,
then consider him but very slightly. If two or more planets aspect
the cusp of rst, they must all be considered according to the sign
in which they are posited, but the ruler of the 1st takes presidency
with the face rising.

of Herschel's influence, but slower in bringing things to pass, and
in a milder way. A little time and study will soon prove its

293 I§ 1 ~ , and the ]), not in good aspect, or afflicted by the
malefics, or planets aspecting W, ~ , and the D• out of their essential
dignities, then they will impnnt the qualities of their natives ; but
imperfectly, and in an obscure degree, not tending so much to the
benefit and advancement of the native. They who are impressed
by the malefics with evil dispositions, if a good aspect intervenes,
have not the power to do the evil they otherwise would do, and
even if they persevere, are so unfit for it that they are soon detected
and punished.
294 The property of the planets ruling W, D• and ~ , will be
powerfully impressed upon the mental energy, which energy is
either strengthened or diminished, according to the force and action
of subordinate configurations ; for those who, by reason of strong
malefic rays, are too prone to violence and injustice, have not their
impulse to commit evil unrestrained, unless these evil rays are
opposed by some contrary effect, as covetiousness, hasty temper,
meanness, and so on. But should a contrary condition oppose this
familiarity of the malefics, the evil inclination is then proportionally
corrected, and the mind is more easily brought to a proper sense
of its intemperate pursuits, and is more likely to meet imposition
or ill treatment.
295 Persons who are good and just, become so because born •
under a familiarity belween the benefics and the places of ~ and ])1
and more especially when no contrary influence of any planet m
elevation interpose ; the natives cheerfully perform good actions,
never subject to injustice, but are fortunate from their honesty and
virtue. But if a contrary familiarity should interpose, the mildness
and humanity of these persons will operate to their disadvantage,
exposing them to .contempt and accusation, thus rendering them
liable to be wronged by the designing multitude.
Thus we have considered the influence of Mercury and the Moon
in a general way, unconnected with the operations and effects of
any particular planet which may happen to assume the dominion,
and thereby imprint its own peculiar influences upon the mental
faculties, in proportion to its superiority over the other planets•.
We shall now take cognizance of the effect of each distinct
planet as is found to produce when it alone governs the mind at
the time of birth.
296 Wruling the :D and ~ , in his dignities, and elevated above
Moon and Mercury, and in good aspect, makes men unsettled in
life, partial to travelling, romantic, studious of antiquity, yet likely
to strike out many novelties, astrologers, meteorolo~sts, phreno-
logists, lecturers, chemists, and fond of new discovenes, especially
in machinery; tutors, and professors of the physical sciences, and

CHAPTER XX.
ON THE DISEASES OF THE MIND.

317 Observe the position of ~ , W, D and ascendant, for if <r, W,


and ~ be unconnected with each other, or the xst, or their rulers,
in 8 to them and elevated above them, the mental qualities will
then consequently become impregnated with various characters, of
which may be clearly known by the abilities of the stars thus con·
trolling the places of J), W, ~,and the xst.
318 If J), ~·. W, and 1st be unconnected by good aspects, and be
afflicted by ~ or i! , and these evil stars in angles and elevated
above J), .W, and ~ , and no assistance given by 2f. or ~ , the native
born will be subject to epilepsy, idiopathy, madness, and insanity.
If ? be so posited by day, and i! by night, the above diseases
will occur ; otherwise, when ? have d , o, or 8 of Asc. by night ;
or i! by day, especially if in$, l!Jt., or)(, the person born will
become insane, or demoniac affections will be produced, especially
under bad arcs.
319 The J) d 0, and they governed by ? ; or D8 0, governed by
i!, and particular in :!l:, 1, or*, the native will become demoniac,
and affiicted with moisture of the brain and lunacy.
320 If ? or i! alone should rule ~, J), or 1st, the disordered
brain is incurable, although it be not very violent ; but should 2f. or
~ be well aspected, and posited between the 1st and 1oth, while
? or i! may ·be in the 7th, then the disease, though violent, will
be curable; if 2f. preside, curable by medical help; but if ~ , by
the strength of the natural faculties. But should 2f. or ~ be
setting, or occidental, and ? or i! oriental and angular, the dis·
orders become not only incurable, but also conspicious, and the
epileptic person will be subject to constant fits, and to danger of

!o8 THB ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILoSOPHY.

death ; the insane become outrageous, unmanageable, wandering


in nakedness ; the demoniac, and those afflicted with moisture of
the brain will become furious, uttering mysterious sayings, and
wounding themselves.
321 If 0 and (! rule ~, W, J?• or zst, and the latter unconnected
as above; the 0 and (! contnbute to insanity. If~ and ~,they
produce epilepsy ; if ? and W, produce fury of enthusiasm and
eccentricity ; if ? and »• affections and moisture of the brain.
322 If instead of ~ , the 0 be with the »• in masculine signs,
with (! and ? , then the male will possess propensities becoming
his sex.
323 W afflicting~ and D at one time, especially if he be elevated
above diem, insanity at periods.
It is by such configqrations as those just described, thatl(any
morbid deviation, occuring in the active or reasoning faculties of
the mind, is produced ; but a deviation of the passive, or merely
sensitive faculties, is discernible chiefly in the excess and deficiency
(as the case may be) of the masculine and feminine genders; that
is to say, in the superabundance or deficiency of the power of
either gender to produce a conformation agreeable to its own
nature. (See on Children).

CHAPTER XXI.
HURTS, INJURIES, AND DISEASES,

324 For the investigation of these circumstances the zst, 7th,


'a nd 6th houses, and the planets affecting the hyleg, must be con-
sidered ; and judgment must be inferred from the general character.
325 If (!, ? , or W be on the cusp of the zst. 6th, or 7th; or be
in exact 8 , o or S o of these degrees, there will be external
blemishes, or bodily infirmities, and more especially if 0 and Dbe
in 0 or 8 in the I st or 7th, or even if there be only one 'luminary
with W, ? , or 0' in the first or 7th, infirmities will be; produced
in those parts of the body ruled by the signs on the first or 7th ;
whether they be hurts, diseases, or both; and those stars will also
point out the cause and quality of the symptom (Chap. VII). ·
· 326 Blemishes and bodily hurts generally happen when W, ? ,
or (! are oriental; but disease, when occidental; and as their
cause is different, so also is their effect, for hurts or blemishes
suffer pain only once, while disease is constant, or repeated at
times, and planets R. have a tendency to cause disease.
327 The Din the zst or 7th, in exact d, So, o; or 8 of S, and
afflicted by W, ? ,or 0', or with any neuulous stars, such as the

4th, or 7th, and in her decrease, and especially those that afflict the
0 be oriental, or ascend before him, and those that afflict the D be
occidental, or ascend after her, then total blindness. Under these
circumstances if will cause blindness by fire, lightning, wounds,
bruises, small pox ; and if with ~ , it will happen at play, or some
amusement, or by some artifice, or private injury ; I] causes blind·
ness by colds, cataracts, specks, gutta-serena, &c. ; if ~ , it will
proceed from reading, study, or mental exertion.
328 If 0 be hyleg, and afflicted by I] , in an angle, or posited in
theIst, the native will be consumptive; if 0 be setting in S\,, and
afflicted, he will be liable to injury by fire or sword ; if Dbe afflicted
by if , and if descending, the natlve will be in great danger of being
burned to death, and if configurated by ~ it comes from an accident
in sport or by robbers.
329 Saturn and ~ in d of 0, in the 1st or 7th, especially ~ in
the 7th, and behold D with a P., o, or 8, the native will have an
impediment in his speech, and speak with difficulty, particularly if
*,
~be in !1l5, 1ft, or it will be still worse. Should if be with them
it will remove the evil a little after the arc of D to ~ is passed over.
330 Mercury in Par., d of 7 or if, or o to the J), from the zst
or 7th, causes the head to be very much diseased, and if both
malefics concur, is apt to cause apoplexy. The Din Par. of 7 or if
will cause a humour or disease in the head ; and if ~ be likewise
afflicted by 7 or if , the disease will be very severe.
3~1 Saturn or if in d in angles, and 0 or Din d or 8, or the
lummaries directed to the malefics, or Luna, and if she be in her
nodes or extreme latitude in hurtful signs, as 'Y', ~ , !1l5, 1ft, and ~'5'.
the native will be distorted, paralysed, or lame. If 7 or if be in
d of the lights, the defect will be from the birth ; but if in 8 to them,
or I] or if be in the M. C., and in o of 0 or D· it w1ll be by blows,
falls from high places, stabs, robberies, shipwreck, and other.
accidents, by quadrupeds, &c.
332 If 0 or Dare configurated together, and both in masculine
signs(p. 15 and 16), both configurated with if and~ in any way, males
then born will have excessive virile members, and women will be
hermaphrodites. If both if and ~ be also in masculine signs, men
will have a mixture of sex, and females will be violently libidinous.
If Venus be also in a masculine sign, they will be more discreet,
and conceal their desires and practises in privacy.
333 If 0and Dare configura ted together in feminine signs (p. 13),
with if and ~ , females will be of a masculine turn, and very
salacious, but the men effeminate. If Venus be in a feminine sign
alone, the native, if a male, will be nearly impotent, bu.\. \u.~\.\u.\. 'O.'t\.~

and Mars feminine, males will have more shameless·practises, with


strength and vigour. Mars and Venus being so configurated, when
oriental and diurnal, make men more robust ; but if occidental and
nocturnal, they are more debilitated. If Saturn be configurated
with them all, they are more prone to violent, impure, obscene,
and unnatural desires ; Mercury adds to their lusts, mobility,
notoriety, activity, and makes them fond of variety of contrivance.s,
either male or female; but if Jupiter be configurated also, he mod-
erates their desires, and renders them more circumspect.
~34 The minor bodily disorders mostly occur on the Moon's
bemg :posited in or, M , n , cancers, eruptions in the face, and dis-
orders arising from the white leprosy ; in 2D, Sl, tiJl., she causes
ringworms, tetters, shingles, &c.; if Moon be in :!!: 1 lJ1.1 1, she
causes scurvy, and a species of leprosy; in lf)>, ::::, *, gives boils,
eruptions of pimples, and other inconveniences, scabbed lips, and
unsound legs, if the malefics are angular and occidental to the
Moon, or oriental to the Sun, and in 2D, }f)', *, cause scurvy or
scrofula; and, indeed, these in the 1st or 7th, in any sign ascribed
to terrestrial animals and fishes, give these diseases, with putridity,
tetters, excoriation, fistula, leprosy, and the like ; while 1 and n
produce diseases by falling fits, and epilepsy. And if the planets
happen to be posited in the latter degrees of the signs containing
them, the extremities of the body will then be chiefly aflected by
the disease or hurt, which will anse from humours or accidents,
producing leprosy, gout, or other infirmities in the hands, fe<!t, &c.,
as cramp, rheumatisms.
335 The malefics in the angles occidental of the Sun, or oriental
of the Moon, then Saturn will generally produce cold in the bowels,
excessive phlegm, rheumatism, emaciation, sickliness, jaundice,
dysentery, cough, obstructions, colic or scurvy; and in women,
besides these diseases, he produces complaints of the womb (177).
Mars will cause expectoration of blood, atrabilarious attacks, pul-
monary complaints, sores and diseases in the privates and abdomen,
~uch as fistula, hemorrhoids, or knots in the fundament, and also
inflamed and putrifying ulcers, and other inflammatory affections
(179). In females, to these calamities he adds abortion, excision
of the fretus, or its mortification. Mercury acting with Saturn,
augments the coldness, and promote the contmuance of rheumatism,
and disturbance of the fluids, especially in the chest, throat, and
stomach. If in familiarity with Mars, Mercury will tend to produce
greater dryness, and will increase ulcers, abscesses, loss of hair,
scarified sores, erysepelas, tetters, black btle, insanity, epilepsy, and
similar disorders (320). If none of the benefics are connected with
the malefics which affect the evil, nor with the Sun and Moon in
angles, these bodily diseases will be wholly uncurable, and the
blemishes never to be removed ; and although the benefics be so
configurated, the misfortune will still be incapable of remedy, if the
malefics be well fortified and in e\evatiQn above t~em (3x8).
RICHEs;, OR FORTUNE OF \VEAI.T!!. III

Should the benefics, however, be in elevation above the malefics,


and hold tolerable situations, then the diseases will be mitigated,
and the blemishes not so obvious, if more than barely discernible.
The more angular or oriental the benefic or malefic may be, the
more powerful will its effects be. Should Saturn be present in the
configuration, the afflicted will move abroad to shew their maladies,
and to complain ; and if Mercury be present, they will do so for
the sake of deriving support and profit from the exhibition; and
very probably beg from door to door.

means of office, government, church preferment, law, legacy, patri-
mony, or by offices of trust. If Jupiter be ill aspected by the
luminaries, especially the D in 8 to 21-, he causes poverty through
extravagance.
339 Mars in the same way, gives riches by means of warfare,

unfortunate, but if Jupiter or Venus assist, the native will advance
himself against all opposition. ·
340 Merct~ry gives riches by science and by trade; but Mercury

NOTORIKTY, OR FORTUNH OF RANK.

3fS RuLE.-The disposition of the luminaries and the respective


familiarity (p. I 3) exercised by the planets attending the 0, D• and
M. C., are to be considered as indicative of the degree of notoriety
or fortune of Rank or dignity.
346 Should Sun or Moon be found in masculine signs, well
aspected, and in angles, or if only one of them, the Sun by day, or
the Moon by night, be in an angle, and at the same time attended
by three or more good stars, the Sun by oriental, hut the Moon by
occidental, and all these attendant stars in angles, or well con-
figurated to the midheaven, and the luminaries in good aspect to
each other, the native will become great, powerful, and mighty in
the world; and even yet more abundantly so, provided the con-
figurations made by the attendant stars with the M. C., he dexter.
347 But when both luminaries may not be found in masculine
signs, as before said (346), but the Sun only in a masculine, and the
Moon only in a feminine sign, and only one, Sun or Moon, posited
in the M. C., the other concomitant circumstances ~>till existing in
the mode above described, the natives will become governor~, chief-
magistrates, having absolute dominion and government, invested
with the sovereignty of life and cleath.
I!.of. THE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PdoiLOSOPHYo

348 The Sun and Moon angular, while the attendant stars
should not be actually in angles, nor bear a good aspect to the M.
C., the native will still enjoy eminence, yet will attain only some
limited dignity or distinction ; such as that of a delegate or local
governor, magistrate, commander of an army, or dignitary of the
priesthood, yet will not be invested with absolute sovereignty.
349 If neither of the luminaries be in an angle, and it happen
that most of the attendant stars be either themselves in angles, er
well configurated with the midheaven, the native will then not
attain to any very eminent rank, yet he will take a leading part in
ordinary civil and municipal affairs ; but should the attendant
stars have..no configuration, happily, with the angles, the native
will then remain altogether undistinguished, and without advance-
ment (85).
350 Provided that the lights be not found situated in a masculine
sign, nor angular, and the meridian have no good aspect of the Sun
or Moon, nor be attended by any benefics, the native born gains no
fame, but lives in complete obscurity, and often in adversity (152).
351 The general appearance of exaltation or debasement of rank
is to be contemplated as the foregoing, but there are gradations
intermediate the two extremes, and requiring observation of the
particular interchanges or variations, incident to the. Sun and Moon
themselves, and their attendants, and also to the dominion of the
planets which compose their doryphory. The condition in which
the person is born must be taken into consideration, for that some-
times may destroy the most propitious configurations, and hinder
the native from nsing to the most princely dignities ; yet, when the
natus is well and powerfully dignified, no evil rays can conspire to
rob the native wholly of his prerogative of honour, but he shall be
exhalted to a degree of eminence and grandeur, infinitely beyond
what could have been expected from the station of live in which he
was born. Should the stars be benefic, and exercise chief dominion,
the dignities to be acquired will be not only more important, but
also more securely established ; on the other hand, if the chief
ruler of the attendant stars be claimed by the malefics (343), the
dignitites will be more subordinate, and more dangerous and
evanescent.
352 The best positions for rising in the world are 21- in the M.C.,
and the 0 and Din * to each other, the D t::. lJ.-0 in 1oth in

ruler of M. C., 3 in good aspect of 0.
353 The species of dignity may be inferred by observing the
peculiar qualities of the attendant ruling stars. And, if-
Saturn have chief dominion of the doryphory, the power and
authority derived therefrom will lead to some wealth, but fleeting
honour. If Saturn afflicts the M. C., the native meets with dis-
grace; and if in M. C., and not extremely well aspected, brings the
native to shame and beggary (I 41). Saturn in square or opposition
of M. C., Sun, or Jupiter, the honour will not be durable.
354 Jupiter ruler of the attendant stars (338), notoriety will come
from gentlemen, by presents and honours. Jupiter in the zoth
house, if not much afflicted, will alone cause the native to do
extremely well in the world, and arrive at distinction and wealth.
355 Jfars ruler of the doryphory, honour will consist in command-
ing armies (if there be honour in murder) ; however the native is
sure to become an "eminent scoundrel" in this (curse of nations)
in obtaining victories, and in over-aweing the vanquished. If in
the M. C., or on the cusp, the native will be a warlike character,
and become eminent in chemistry, &c.
356 Venus ruler of the concomitant stars, will have the prerol;{a·
tive of giving the predilection to honour through ladies and feminme
acquirements (341 ). If on M. C., she renders the native respectable,
unless in ill aspect to Saturn, then mean and dissipated in privacy.
She partakes very much with those planets to which she is m
aspect, and a correct judgment of her effects can be formed only by
taking this into full consideration ; if ill aspected by Mars, the
native is not chaste.
357 ~ercury, honours proceeding from Mercury will be intellec-
tual, superintending education and study, and directing the
management of business, as foreman, manager, according as
Mercury is strongly or (167) weakly situated.
358 Herschel ruler of the attendant stars, or chief go:vernor of the
dignity of honour, then the native rises by public bodies, a town or
government pfficer, by science, or by engmeering.

CHAPTER XXIV.
THE QUALITY OF EMPLOYMENT.

359 RuLE I.-The dominion of the Employment, or profession,


is claimed by the Sun, the sign on the M. C., or a planet in the M.
C., and that planet which makes its oriental appearance nearest to
the Sun, and especially when receiving the application of the
Moon. If one planet be in the M. C., and also makes its nearest
appearance before the Sun, it has at once the prerogative of em-
ployment.
360 RuLE 2.-If, however, there should be one planet presenting
its nearest appearance to the Sun, and another near theM. C., or
configured happily thereto, or to the Moon, both then must be
noticed ; and whichever of these claimants has greater rights of
dominion. that which has greater sway must be preferred. But
where there is not one near the Sun, nor in theM. C., nor.in good
aspect to the cusp of M. C., then take that which is ruler of theM.
C., as lord of the employment; it is however, only some occasional
occupation which can be thus denoted, because persons born
under such a configuration most commonly remain at leisure, and
unemployed.
. 361 If H erschtl alone rule, causes employment out ofthe common
course of life, whence he so generally conduces to the study of
astrology, phrenology, geology, chemistry, astronomy (x6g).
362 Saturn has special influence on all businesses relating to
ancient matters, buildings, architecture, agriculture, &c., and
masons, and all those of a heavy, dirty, mean, or laborious OCCU·
pation, and those wherein money is obtained with great difficulty
(170).
363 Jupiter, sole ruler, denotes offices of trust, and honourable
as well as lucrative occupations (171) ; he particularly denotes
preferment either in the law or the church, and favour of the great
(354)· . .
THE QUALITY OF EMPLOYMENT. II7
364 Mal's denotes all trades or occupations wherein fire, metals,
or sharp instruments are used (172); the army, and military affairs
relative to the army (164); also all ingenious and mechanical trades;
in qa or *• naval men.
365 VMfiS denotes all elegant occupations, and polite arts, whether
relating to dress, decoration, jewels, ornaments, music, or such like,
peculiar to the fair sex (166), or the luxuries of the great (174),
dealers in grocery, botany, tinctures, aromatic waters, wines,
cordials, and they make excellent medical doctors, and will be well
to deal in the above.
366 Me,-cury is the author herein of all literary occupations, polite
arts, and those of a sCientific nature, students in law, physic, or
divinity, or connected with writing, books, travelling, messages,
papers (167), or nimble, active, but ingenious and light and easy
occupations (175).
367 The Moon denotes various professions, according to the sign
in which she is ; of her own nature, she denotes trades or pro-
fessions where great changes or frequent alterations are necessary.
In ea, m, or *,she denotes those relating to the sea or naval
occupations, dealing in fluids or liquids ; in other signs her nature
is altered accordingly (168).
368 The Sun produces love of rule and dominion, and honourable
employments, e1ther under the state or under some public body of
men (173).

MERCURY's signification when joined with others.


369 Mercury and Saturn conjoined, persons then born will be-
come managers of the affairs of others, or will be engaged in
temples, for the sake'of their fanaticism; also lawyers, counsellors,
stationers, dealers in antiquities, and those employed in the lower
offices of state. ~ S o , o , Ses o , '? , denotes professed thieves,
born to inherit the gallows, potters, turners. ~ with 0', sailors,
shepherds, carvers, quarry masons, gravestone cutters, curriers,
milk and cheese sellers.
370 Mercury ruler, and Jupiter conjoined, they will be painters,
orators, pleaders in argument, barristers, bankers' clerks, and
occupied with eminent personages, and parish clerks ; in 0 , very
serious in religious professions, he may become an ambassador,
excellent merchant.

VENUs, mixed with other planets.


371 Venus, ruler, and Saturn add his testimony to hers, he will
cause persons to be emp!oyed in matters belonging to amusemet\t~,
carments, apparel, and decoration (x66); and -wl.\\ a\<oo \)t.oo;\l.ce
I tR THE ARCASA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY0

tailors, apothecaries, and learned tradesmen, publicans, jugglers,


sorcerers, and charalatans, and all such as practise similarly ; both
ill affected, they become harlots, &c.
372 Venus ruler, and Jupiter assist, persons attending exhibitions,
mercers, priests, supenntendents of religious ceremonies, haber-
dashers, bishops (171), and will be advanced in honour through
female interest to some trust under government.

MARS mixed with other planets.


373 Mars ruler, and Sun beingconfigurated, will produce persons
who operate by means of fire ; in a nocturnal geniture, a soldier
(172); especially if 0 be in X or S\,, or 0 be near M. C., or aspect
to M. C., also cooks; huntsmen, as well as those who work in
copper, brass, and other metals, founders, by mechanic melting,
burning, and casting. If (! be separated from 0, he will make
shipwrights, smiths, agriculturalists, stonemasons, carpenters, and
subordinate labourers ; if in d of 0, carpenters of the highest
order ; D with (! make butchers, brewers, dyers, fishmongers.
374 Mars ruler, and Saturn bear testimony, persons will become
mariners, workers in wells, vaults, or mines, plasterers, painters,
whitewashers, keepers of beasts or cattle, cooks or butchers,
tanners, and attendants on baths or exhibitions. Mars and Saturn
afflicting each other, make sweeps, day-labourers, millers, bailiffs,
charcoal burners, gas burners (170).
375 Mars ruler, and Jupiter join testimony-, they w•Jl be soldiers,
tobacconists, or mechanics, collectors of revenues, inn-keepers, toll-
gatherers; in conjunction, and Mars be the stronger, he may be a
lawyer, and a professor of religion, or a parish clerk.

MERCURY aud VENUS co-mixed.

376 Further, should it happen that two arbiters of employment


may be found together, and provided they should be ~ and ~ , will
tben produce musicians, melodists, dancers, poets, weavers, mimics,
orators, actors, comedians, scholastic teachers, modellers in wax,·
painters, artists, musical instrument makers, and sculptors, if
Mars aspect Mercury. If Venus be lady of the 2nd, gains a fortune
by the above. And if Saturn join testimony with Mercury and
Venus, the preparation of the sale of female ornaments, toymen,
jewellers, will be added to the foregoing occuP.ations; Jupiter in
connection with Mercury and Venus, persons wdl become admin-
. istrators of justice, magistrates, senators, instructors of youth, and
more especially when n or:!!= is on theM. C., and Mercury rises
nearest before the Sun; in the 12th, administers of public aft"airs.
If Mercury be R. with Venus, they make excellent singers and
music masters.
THE QUALITY OF EMPLOYMENT. ng
MERCURY and MARS joint rulers.
· 377 Mercury and Mars together be lords of the employment,
persons will become statuaries, armour makers, carvers, gilders,
engravers, sculptors, moddlers of animals, wrestlers, boxers,
duelists, surgeons, spies or informers, adulterers, busy in crime,
and forgers. If Mercury be most powerful, they will be scientific ;
surveyors, printers, diesinkers ; and if Mars be strongest, they will
be more violent or wickedly inclined, and cruel in their practises
(164). If. Saturn join,Mercury and Mars, they will be thieves
(especially if the Moon be in ill aspect to Mercury), and swindlers;
if Saturn be in 7th, he will be hanged; if in the 12th, transported;
if Moon be in ill aspect to Mars, they will be robbers or assassins,
which is far worse if Venus, at the same time, assist in the malig-
nancy of the configuration (164). If Jupiter join Mercury and
Mars, he will engage persons in honourable warfare, and in in-
dustry, making them cautious and diligent in business, curious in
foreign matters, and deriving profit from their pursuits. But Jupiter
afflicted by Mercury and Mars, jangling attorneys, and encouragers
of all undermining illegal proceedings.

. MARs and VENUS joint rulers of profession.


. 378 Venus and Mars rule together, persons will become dyers,
dealers in ungents, and perfumers, barbers, gardeners, workers in
tin, lead, gold, and silver; also combatants, dancers in armour,
dealers in medical drugs, agriculturalists, and physicians (174).
Saturn with ~ or if, will produce persons attendant on ammals
consecrated to religion, chapel keepers, also grave-diggers, sextons,
and undertakers, curates, and fanatics occupied in religious cere-
monies, lamentations and blood (170). If Jupiter add testimony to
~ and if , the persons will become regulators of sacrifices, augurs,
holders of sacred offices, governors placed over women, bastile or
prison-keepers, and interpreters ; and they will derive support from
such occ~pations (171). If Herschel join with ~ and if, bath-
keepers, keepers of public establishments, police officers, constables,
chemists, druggists, and philosophers (r6g). If Sun join testimony
to ~ and if, produce government office holders (173).
. 379 The Moon actually occupying the place regulating the
employment, she causes many changes (168), and after the con-
junction, continue in connectiOn with ~ , and in ~, n, ~, t, lr)>,
or *, then she will produce sagacious and penetrating persons,
astrologers, phrenologists, astronomers, and doctors. This is the
more likely if Wbe strong and aspected by ~ , or even the D· And
if in ::!:!. 1 'Y', or &l,, Luna will produce fanatics, and false religionists,

grazier, &c.; if strong, a coach-maker, veterinary surgeon, &c.,
where he has to do with cattle or horses in a respectable way.
381 If the significator be in ~ , then husbandry will best suit him,
or gardening, corn dealing, grazing, &c., or if ~ be the significato!',
such things as apertain to women's affairs, a soap boiler, fuller o~

~82 If the significator be in n, he will make a writer, clerk,

schoolmaster, traveller, &c.
383 If he be in qa, he will be fitted for a variety of occupations;
but he will be likely to go to sea, or to deal in liquids, such as
wines, beer, &c., and he will be fond of political distinction.
384 If he be in S\,, he will make a good horse-jockey, groom,
cabman, or coachman; a smith, watchmaker, glassblower, hunts-
man, or cow doctor ; or to do with any trade which uses fire.
385 In t!J!, he will make a good secretary to a person in power, a
schoolmaster, accountant, stationer, printer; he will be an excellent
politician, or be a good astrologer, clever in whatever he takes up.
386 If in .o., he will be a good poet or orator, singer or musician,
silkman or linendraper, seller of commodities over the counter,
confectioner, wine seller, &c.
387 If in m, he may prove a good surgeon, apothecary, or physi-
cian, or a brazier, founder, brewer, vintnl;!r, waterman, or maltster.
388 If in t , he will do very well to make a clergyman, to study
chemistry, to buy and sell cattle, or to be a cook or butcher.
38g If he be in 1-j', a good chandler, victualler, farrier, fariner.
dealer in wool, lead, or farming commodities. '
390 If he be in:::::, an excellent ship carpenter; and if any planet
aspect him out of a watery sign, he may prove a good sailor or
ship-master, or a painter and omamenter of ships, or a merchant,
or bargeman, tide keeper, or waterman. · · · ··~
391 If he be in *, he makes a jester, singer, player, &c., brewer;
fishmo?ger ; but generally the genius is dull, and the party given
to sottlshness.
392 From the foregoing rules, the various forms of employm~ ' ,
are to be inferred, and its magnitude or importance will. be maui•. i'
fested by the existing power of the ruling planets. For instaiu:e,
if the said planets be oriental, or in angles, they will give the
person eminence and authority in his employment; but if occidental
or cadent, they will render him subordinate. And should the
benefics be in elevation, the employment will be important, Iuera·
tive, secure, honourable, and agreeable ; but on the other hand if
the malefics be in elevation above the lords of the employment, it
J!ill then be mean, disreputable, unprofitable, and insecure ; thu

and in the composition or mixture of views and avocations ; and 0'
produces ill luck by audacity, presumption, and publicity in
enterprise, and both ';? and 0' are alike hostile to proficiency and
prosperity. Herschel well affected gives gain by a variety of
extraordinary businesses.
393 The general period, at which any increase or diminution of
the employment may take place, must, again, in this case also, be
determmed by the disposition of the stars, which operate the effect,
towards the oriental and occidental angles. And the particular
periods of succeSs must be looked for from the arcs in active oper-
ation productive of success and honour. The general periods are to
be judged as follows: the rules happily configurated in the eastern
angle denotes the beginning of active business at 21; the mid-
heaven, the middle portion of life, or from '3o to 45 years of age;
and the western ang,le, at the latter period of life, or from 40 to 55
years of age.

men marry late in life, or to women older than themselves. Should

men never marry, especially if they be stationary R. or in detriment,
or if they marry, a very unhappy union. An early marriage from

395 RuLE 2nd-Observe the planet assuming dominion over the
7th house and the state of ~ 2nd. Venus in ~, .o., s;, or S\,, is
a small testimony of an early marriage. If ~ be in the same sign
as the 0, and not more than 18 degrees from his d, the testimony
is stronger for marriage ; but the strongest testimony is ~ or 0 in

strong in one sign, marriage occurs twice or thrice. The)) in any
other signs, and in application to only one planet, causes men to
marry only once. Also many planets in the 1st or 7th give many
lovers.
Quality of the Wives.
397 Mark the planet to which the Moon first applies, by aspect;
if to W, there will be little domestic comfort ( 161 ), and the wife
will be of a hasty temper, yet fond of science (x6g). Herschel in
7th discord m both courtship and marriage, and more especially if
W be unassisted by the good aspects of ~, ~ , ~ , or 0.

virtuous, but her virtues are clouded (276). In the 8th, rich wife.
400 If J' first receive the Moon's application, the wife will be
bold and refractory, a true friend, but desirous of being master ;
but being ill affected, she will be quarrelsome and proud; and if

ful: ·and if both J' and ~ be configura ted to ~, and J' happen to

between persons of equal age; and if the said position happen 1D
the 1st or Ioth house, men will become connected with their
maternal aunts. And if Venus be found occidental, men will
connect themselves with low women and servants ; but· Mars
occidental, with women of respect and rank, else with wom~living
with other men. But if Mars be separated from Venus and Saturn,
but yet in good testimony w1th Jupiter, then men are decorous in
sexual intercourse; if Mars attach himself to Saturn only, men will
be dull and careless ; if Saturn or Herschel and Mars be connected
together, and Venus and Jupiter also configurated with them, then
men become easily excited to indecency, yet in a secret manner.
But should Saturn or Herschel be absent, and Mars with Venus
alone, then licentious.

407 RuLE 2nd.-Should the 0 be posited between 4th and Ist,
or between the Ioth and 7th, women will marry either in their own
youth, or to men younger than themselves ; but if 0 be in the
other quadrants, they will either marry late in life, or to men who
have passed their prime, or some years their senior.

oriental planets to which 0 applies, and the time of marriage is
known by the arcs of direction.

Quality of the Husba11tis.


409 Mark the planet or planets to which the Sun first applies by
par. or any aspect; for the husbands will partake of the same
nature and qualities of those planets to which the configurations
are made. The 7th house in part shews the description of the
husband ; Jupiter therein, an excellent husband;. Saturn and

Herschel therein, not lasting concord between them, annoyances


in courtship and wedlock ; Sun therein, rather proud, but majestic
if well dignified (165); Mercury therein, of a romantic disposition,
fund of addressing several lovers at one time, but this depends on
his dignity (167); Moon herein, fond of change, and removes from
places for the sake of employment. Venus therein, happiness; but
3., discord. ·
410 If Herschel receives the Sun's application, the husband will
be of a curious temper, fond of women's company ; and if Sun be
in ill aspect to Herschel, the female will be long ere she marries,
and will have many lovers, and danger and disgrace in courtship,
especially if Herschel be in the sth, 7th, Ioth, or I Ith .
. 411 If Saturn first receives the Sun's application, he will provide
husbands steady, advantageous, industrious, sober and grave, but
cold and phlegmatic (398) ; Sun and Saturn in good aspect, happi-
ness ; Sun, Saturn, and Mercury well configurated, profitable
marriage, and the husband tolerably well off.
412 "If Jupiter receives the Sun's application, the husbands will
be honourable, noble-minded, and generous ( r65); if he be afflicted,
very likely a separation after marriage, and the husband is crimin-
ally connected with other women-this never fails if Jupiter be
in * in the 7th, just falling into the 6th. ·
413 If Mars receives the Sun's application, the husband will be
severe, but not void of affection, rather intractable, passionate, and
arbitrary. This depends on the aspect of 0 and 0', and 0' dignities
(164). If the Sun has no aspect with Mars, and Mars be weak in
the ligure, the female does not do well in marriage ; and if, at the
same time, Herschel or Saturn be in ill aspect of Sol, she will not
marry, or she probably will live with a man unmarried. And if
Moon be afflicted by Mars, unchaste, unless Jupiter assist in good
aspect. If Sol be in conjunction of Mars, and Jupiter in ill aspect
to either, then the woman is mean and sordtd in her desues,
more especially if these planets be in masculine signs (page 16); if
the configuration happen in feminine signs, then her appetite will
be more passive.
414 If the Sun first appears to Venus, well affected, the husband
will be amiable and handsome; if Venus be in conjunction of Saturn
or Herschel, or bad aspects to them, the husband will be dull and
bad tempered, but mgenious and laborious; if with Jupiter,
decorous, just and honest (412); if with Mars, hasty, lustful and
adulterous; and if with Mercury, they will be immodest and wanton
with young persons. If Venus be in good aspect to both Jupiter
and Mercury at the same time, then women will be temperate,
sober, and pure in their desires (401); but Venus in aspect with
Mercury alone, they will be secretly sensual. ~ o G), husbands
profitably employed.

422 When the rulers of the xoth and I rth are givers of offspring,
and are oriental, or in good places of the figure, the children will
become respectable ; but if occidental, or in evil places of the
figure, the children will be undistinguished and obscure. Moreover,
should the said rulers be in concord with the $ and with the xst,
the children will be amiable and beloved by their parents, and
inherit their parents' substance; but if these be unaspected,
beneficially, the children vicious, incorrigible, losing their parents'
esteem, and, probably ultimately, their inheritance of substance.
423 Should the givers of offspring be happily configurated among
themselves, they foreshow brotherly love and harmony, and they
will mutually assist one another ; more especially if the 3rd house
be possessed by good planets. But if the significators afflict each
other, they will excite in the family hatred, deceit, and treachery.

ON CONSENTANEOUS FRIENDSHIP AND ENMITY.

With regar~ to frie~~sh~~ and en?Jity, it may be observed that


great and lastmg fannhanties, or disagreements, are respectively
called sympathies and antipathies; while the smaller, such as arise
ON CONSENTANEOUS FRIENDSHIP AND ENMITY. 129
occasionally, and subsist for a short time only, are denominated
casual intimacies and strifes; the whole are to be contemplated
according to the following rules. Indications of great and lasting
friendships or enmities may be perceived by observation of the
ruling places exhibited in the respective nativities of both the
persons between whom the friendship or enmity may exist.

Friendship.
424 RuLE I.-Observe the Sun, the Moon, the Part of Fortune,
and the Ascendant. Should all these be· in the same sign, or in
mutual reception, or the two ascendant be in the same sign, then
ther.e will be fixed and indissoluble friendship. If the above signi-
ficators be in good aspect with the same significators in the other's
nativity, then there will be minor friendship, or mere acquaintance-
ship. Fortunes in the ISt, 5th, 7th, gth, aud I I th houses, many
friends. Many planets in good aspect of each other in the I I th,
many friends.
425 Saturn and Jupiter transiting each other's place in the two
nativities, produce friendship by agreements or engagements,
relating either to building, agriculture, covetousness, or by the
joint inheritance in fortune, or by meeting in societies or companies
(170). Saturn and Venus, friendship on account of kindred, but it
soon grows cold. Saturn and Mercury transiting each other's
place, or good aspects of each other, produce friendship by con-
versation, business, profit, science, or confederacy.
426 Jupiter and Herschel cause friendship by meeting in one
church, or by church discipline, meeting in public bodies, town
offices, undertaking public concerns. Jupiter and Mars create
friendship by means of dignities, combatmg against others. Jupiter
and Venus create friendship by means of females, ecclesiastics, or
attendant on charity and religious dealings. Jupiter and Mercury,
friendship by means of science, painting, poetry, and philosophical
inclinations (305). Public writers of every description should have
Mercury unaffiicted, and assisted by aspect of Jupiter and Venus,
or they strive in vain to come at eminence, or to gain the public
esteem.
427 Mars and Venus cause friendship by means of amours,
dissipation to do wickedness (307). Venus and Mercury produce
communion by means of the arts and sciences (310), by mutual
interest in 'literature, or by females, also by being school fellows.
428 Sol, in the place of any planet in another's nativity, makes
friendship for honesty, honour (278). Jupiter, for utility (276).
Venus, for pleasure. Moon, according to the conveniency o! her
nature as she may be affected with other planets. Venus, in one
where the Moon is with the other native, sure and lasting friend-
ship.
t.)O THE ARCA~A Ol' PR.\C'riCAi. ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY.

Enmities.
429 RuLE.-Consider well the discordant positions of the
malefics in each other's nativities, for if they are not in accordant
familiarity (2oo) then great and lasting enmity between the natives
whose nativities we investigate. If the places of the Sun, Moon,
or Mercury be afflicted by conjunction or ill aspects (2o1) of Saturn,
Mars, or Herschel, the native will have a rough, turbulent, and
quarrelsome life, and inany enemies.
430 Saturn and Mars produce enmity and contention, and often
foreshow premeditated fraud and villany. Jupiter and Mars
produce enmity by politics, improper preferment, or interested
measures of government. Mars and Mercury· cause enmity •by
similar interest in business, or by the same partieS following the
same avocation. In these cases Mercury has great power, for
wherever he is afflicted by aspect or position, the native is liable to
much scandal, reproach, and vituperative abuse.

Power of their Friendship.


431 The greatest sympathies that can exist in two nativities, is
by having Jupiter or Venus upon the place of the Sun, Moon, Part
of Fortune, or Ascendant in each other; and the luminaries of the
latter upon the fortunes of the former. Jupiter., Sol, Venus, o r -
Luna in the uth, essentially strong, and in good aspect (200) wit~
the ruler of the zst, strong friendship. When Mercury or ~ is i~
the 1 zth, false friends. The Sun and Moon, the Moon and Mercury=-
or the Sun and Mercury, posited in each other's places, the friend
ship is not very substantially fixed, the acquaintanceship will ~
fluctuating. If Saturn, Jupiter, Venus, Herschel, and Mars are i-=::-J
each other's places, there will be dissensions mixed with a kind e>:f
friendship; and friendship seems to cea~e while the malefics of on.~
is traversing the benefics of the other. He loves most whose rule.r
of the ascendant is a benevolent planet, or whose ruler of the I sf
applies to good aspect of the other. They do not long agree whose
sign ascending is the same sign on the uth, 6th, or 8th of the
I
other.
Power of their E11t11ity.
432 Ruler of the 12th R, or in detriment to the 6th, the native
overcomes. Saturn or Mars in the 12th strong, argues the enemies
die first. Who has n , 1 , or :::: ascending, makes himself enemies.
Saturn in the ascendant, or ruler thereof, in one nativity, being
on the cusp of the 7th in another, then perfect hatred, and the
latter will be the injured person. The greatest antipathy is where
the infortunes in the one possess the place of the luminaries in the
other ; and the luminaries in the latter possess the places of the
infortunes in the former.
ON TRAVELLING. tjt

Their comparative intensity or relaxation f>f vigour is to be


distinguished by the situation of the places which they occupy with
regard to the four mentioned places (424).

CHAPTER XXVIII.
ON TRAVELLING.

433 RuLE.-Obsetve the power and position of the Sun, the


Moon, Mars, and the Part of Fortune. If they are most of them
cadent, and especially in 'Y', s;, ~. or.l-J, then the native will
travel. The gth, 3rd, 12th, or 6th, moveable, are tokens of
travelling, especially if the Sun and Moon are both cadent. The
$ alone cadent will cause many journeys. Mars descending, more
particularly in the gth, especially if he happen to be in square or
opposition of Sun or Moon, produces tramping or itinerating.
434 The Moon descending from the 7th, gth, or on the 1st or
xoth, causes journeys and changes of residence, especially in 'Y' or
n or 1 , and short journeys if in s;, n.J!., ~, '.ry, ot *-. "t\:\~ "\1\~'t\.
132 ThE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL AeTRAL PhiLOSOPhY.

in any part of the figure, n , t , or *, causes frequent changes of


residence, but usually these changes happen very unexpectedly, or
in a strange and extraordinary way; generally advantageous in *.
435 Mercury angular in moveable or bicorporeal signs, gives
restlessness of mind, and a predeliction for travelling. If these,
Mars, Mercury, and Moon be just setting in ~, lll., or *, cause
voyages, or often travelling, long residence near the water. Also,
the same, should Mercury and the Moon be in conjunction or
reception, or both in the 1st, 3rd, or gth, the native will travel long
journeys.
The Good or Ill attending the Travelling .
.436 Should Jupiter or Venus rule the places of the Sun and
Moon, but more especially the Moon, and in good aspect thereto,
they will render the journey agreeable, as well as free from danger,
and th~ engagements abroad lucrative, and the return home speedy
and unobstructed. And, provided Mercury also be present with
Jupiter or Venus, utility, presents, and honour will likewise be
derived from the journey. Saturn in good aspect gives inheritance;
Mars, honours and office ; Herschel, a public situation.
437 The significator;; of trav_elling in ill aspect with Herschel,
Saturn, Sun, Mars, and these a long distance from each other, or
ascend after the other significators, then the journeys will be un- ·
fortunate, and the return replete with difficulties. Mercury in ill
aspect, danger by piracy, imprisonment, or by poison ; Venus,
unpleasant travelling. The afflictor in the 12th, danger of imprison-
ment; in the 2nd or 3rd, treacherY. by kindred or neighbours, and
so on as the other houses sigmfy (199). Bein~ in~. lll., or *•
mischief by shipwreck, storms, drowning, or falhng into desolate
and inaccessible places; in ~' st. m. or:::::, by precipices, or tem-
pests, or contrary winds ; in 'Y', ~, or l-)', by wan~ of food and other
necessaries, and through sickness ; in n • 11Jt., by the attack of
robbers, pirates, or savages, especially if Mars or Mercury be the
afflictors ; in I , by wild beasts and cattle. The particular times
for good or ill luck are known by the Arcs of Directions.

Cause of Travelling.
438 The Sun or Moon in the 7th, or just setting, the native
moves from different places for the gaining of situation, employ-
ment, and out of the way of public enemies. The significator of
travelling, especially J and EJ), must be observed in what house
they are posited, and of what house Mars is ruler, and so judge ;
in the 2nd, he travels for the sake of gain ; in the 1oth, for honour,
trade, &c. (199); if in the 1st, he has an inclination to see fresh
places. To judge further, take notice what kind of things the
rulers of journeys signify, and say those are the things for which
the peregrinator wishes to travel.
ON THE KIND OF DEATH. 133
Whither he had better Travel.
439 The quarter of the globe to which he had better tend his
steps is judged from the position of Sun and Moon. If the lumi-
naries be placed in the Ist, the travels will take place in the
eastern quarters ofthe world; if in the 1oth, towards the south; if
in the 7th, towards the west ; if in the fourth, travel will then be
prosecuted in the northern parts. And should the signs productive
of travelling be n, t , or *, journeys will be constantly repeated ;
in the other signs, peregrinations will take place after retarded
intervals. The countries to which he had better travel are chiefly
those subjected to the signs of the Ist, 2nd, gth, wth, and 1 Ith; or
those signs in which Jupiter, Venus, g, or (!) are located at birth;
but those in which the ~, Herschel, Saturn, or Mars are placed
must be avoided ; as also those subjected to the sign of the 4th,
6th, 7th, 8th, or 12th houses.

CHAPTER XXIX.
THE KIND OF DEATH.

It remains to treat of the species of death, which are to be judged,


in a great measure, by the Rules already laid down in CHAP. vu.,
whether death will ensue from an oriental or occidental position
(245). The place of the meeting of the killing rays must be c.on.-
sidered to point out the character of death to a cetta\n. ex.\en.\ \_•~~)·
134 THS ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY.
The configuration of the stars, the properties of the aforesaid (241)
anaretic places, and the nature of the signs, as in CHAP. IX., and of
the faces, as in CHAP. Iv., are, also, all of them co-operative.
440 RuLE.-DEATH IS ALWAYS CREATED BY A TRAIN OF EVIL
DIRECTION TO THE HYLEG AND OTHER VITAL POINTS. And remember,
that if the hyleg be not afflicted, the life will not be destroyed,
however evil the directions, and however much they may injure
health (254). If the ascendant and the hyleg be well aspected,
and if Jupiter, Venus, Moon, or Mercury, well aspected, beplaced
in the 8th house, the native dies a natural death. The nature of
the death is to be judged of chiefly by the second direction in
operation at the time : -
441 Herschel cannot kill by himself, but his ill aspects assist to
destroy life; and where they occur, will produce something sudden,
singular, or extraordinary in the nature of the death (177), often by
drowning, sometimes by machinery, which will often happen while
the native is in his employment (450).
441A Neptune will help to destroy life when in Ill aspects to the
hyleg or the giver of life.
442 Satum causes all cold diseases, colic, coughs, illiac fassion,
agues, rheumatism, consumption, dropsy, flux, &c.; and i violent
symptoms are perceived, he brings death by blows, falls, suffocation
(451), the latter especially in Scorpio. Take notice also of the sign
10 which the planet is placed (177).

443 Jupiter brings death by quinsey, impure state of the blood,


liver complaints, spasms, disease-; of the lungs (178). If violence
attend the death, it may be by sentence of a judge.
444 Mars causes death by fever, wounds, spitting of blood, erysi-
pelas, childbirth, &c. If by violence, he kills by gun-shot or sword,
suicide, or fire ; by breaking blood vessels, by bites of mad dogs,
syphilis (179). -
445 Venus produces death by cancer, ringworms, scurvy, dysen-
tery, diabetes, or wasting away, fistulas, and putrid diseases. If
violence attend, she causes poison (181). ·
446 Mercury produces death by fury, madness, melancholy,
epilepsy, coughs, and obstructions. If violence attend, death is
caused by accident, sport, or by robbers (462).
447 The Moon. When the ascendant or Sun is hyleg, the Moon
will assist in causing death by cold phlegmatic diseases, and if she
*,
be placed in qo , ll1., or by drowning (I 83)
448 The Sun wil) assist to cause death by his ill aspects to the
Ascendant or Moon if either be hyleg, and then he acts like Mars,
and if in Leo will produce death by fire, if other testimonies
accord (rBo).
THE KIND OF DRATH, 135
o,. a V iole"t D~ath.

449 When the lords of death may fully possess their own ~
peculia~ and ~atural properties, and when Herschel, Saturn, Mars, - - .
may be in elevation above them, death 1vill ensue in the modes
above detailed, and in the ordinary course of nature. But a violent,
or remarkable death happens when both the malefics attack both
Sun and Moon, or have only one, and at the same time the Ascend-
ant be affiicted (250). If an evil planet be placed in the 8th house,
it is an additional testimony of a violent death ; but if it be there
when the other testimonies do not occur, then it merely shows a
p~inful death. Saturn causes slow lingering deaths, and Mars and
Herschel cause them to be more sudden.
450 Herschel by machine accidents, as on railways, drinking,
bathing, shipwreck; by the mob (441).
451 TO 461 If Saturn be in fixed signs, oriental, and in semi- •
square, square, sesquisquare, or opposition of Sun, he will produce
death by suffocation, occasioned either by multitudes of people, or
by hanging, or strangulation ; so, likewise, should he be occidental,
and the Moon be succedent to him, he will operate the same effects.
If he be posited in beastial signs, the native will be destroyed by
wild beasts; and if Jupiter also offer testimony, being at the same
time afflicted, the death will then occur in public, by day. If
Saturn be in the 1st, in opposition to the Sun or Moon when
setting, will cause death in prison ; if Saturn be configurated with
Mercury, and especially with Serpentis, in the 4th face of Scorpio,
Saturn will produce death by venomous wounds or bites, and by
reptiles and wild beasts ; and, should Venus also attach herself to
Saturn and Mercury thus combined, death will ensue by poison or
female treachery. If Saturn or Herschel be in s, tt.l• ltJ., or
and evilly configurated with the Moon, he will operate death
*,
by means of water, intoxication, by drowning and suffocation;
and if found near Argo, by shipwreck. Should Saturn or Herschel
be in 'Y', \!D, .o., or ll'j', and the Sun or Mars in conjunction or
opposition, death will be caused by the fall of houses or buildings ;
and, if posited in the mid-heaven, death will happen _by falls from
heights or precipices ; if in the 4th, by being buried under the
earth, &c.-These are the various effects of Saturn and Herschel,
when configurated as described. Mars with the Pleiades, and
s~turn with Regulus, denote danger of a violent death. Mars in
conjunction, square, or opposition of Moon-and Saturn in the same
aspect of the Sun from angles, shew a violent death ; also, Sun or
Moon in square, or opposition of Saturn or Mars from the 4th or
roth houses. Saturn or Mars with caput Algol, and Moon with
Deneb, he dies by sentence.
462 Jfars in n, t~Jl, :::, and in the first half of t , and posited in

Mars be near Caput Algol, in the sth face of Taurus (19), he will
produce death by beheading, decapitation, or by mutilating a limb.
If in nt or ~ , he will cause death by surgical amputation, burning,
.searing, or by spasms or convulsions. Should Mars be found in
·the 4th or IOth house, death will be inflicted by Impalement or
hanging, especially if Mars be within 5 degrees of Cepheus or
Andromeda. If Mars be just setting, and especially in opposition
or square of Sun or Moon (327), he will produce death by fire;
Mars with Aldebaran, by a stab ; in quadrupedal signs, by falls
and fractures. Should Jupiter, however, bear testimony to Mars,
and be at the same time afflicted, death will ensue from the wrath
of rulers, and from judicial condemnation, or in an affair of honour.
as duelling chartering, &c. If Venus add testimony, death by
women; if Mercury, by robbers, pirates, &c.
463 If it h!ippen that Herschel, Saturn, and Mars be in reception
with each other, or in opposition from the ut or 7th among them-
• selves, or with the Sun or Moon, death will be more certain, but its
species or quality, and its dominion, will depend upon -that one
malefic which may occupy anaretic places. And all, Herschel,
Saturn, and Mars claim prerogative in the anaretic places (243);
the bodies of persons who thus die will not have a churchal
interment, but will be devoured by beasts and birds; these circum-
stances will especially ensue whea the malefics are found in signs
similar in form to beasts and birds, and provided the benefics
should neither offer testimony to the 4th house, nor to the anaretic
places (244).
Lastly, death will occur abroad if the planets controlling the
anaretic places be cadent, especially if the Moon be therein, and
more especially if she be in square or opposition to the anareta.
464 One direction, however malevolent it may be, rarely kills, and
in most nativities thete is required a train of malevolent directions
to concur to death ; where several malevolent directions concur so
together without the aid or intervenings of the benevolents, they
fail not to destroy life (244). In such train of directions, the fore-
most of the malevolent train is the killing place, and the second
shew the time of death ; but the following directions, though
benevolent, shew the quality. If the train fall altogether, and
none follow, for the quality observe those which precede, though
at a distance and benevolent also, for though the benevolent con-
tribute to the preservation of life, yet they frequently specify the
disease which is the cause of death (178 and 181). Notice the
nature of the planets and the signs in which they are placed. In
violent deaths, the genethliacal positions of the Sun and Moon are
to be observed, and how the malefics affect them, and how the Sun
and Moon are concerned by directions in the quality of death.

CHAPTER XXX.
OF THE PARENTS.

465 In conformity to nature, the Sun, 4th house, and Saturn


represent the person or the father; and the Moon, xoth house, and
Venus denote that of the mother. And, as these are found afflicted
among themselves, or otherwise, we infer so will be the situation
of the parents and their affairs. The planets which are con-
figurated with the luminaries shew what relates to their fortunes
and possessions;- for if they are surrounded, within 30 degrees,
either before or after, by the benefics, and by such stars and planets
as are of the same nature as themselves, their fortunes will be
illustrious and splendid ; particularly if the Sun be attended by the
bodies which rise before him ; or the Moon be followed within 30
· degrees by bodies that rise after her. If Saturn and Venus be
orientally posited, or in the M. C., they foreshow the prosperity
according to the particular circumstances of each parent. If the
Sun and Moon hold no good aspects with Jupiter and Venus, the
adverse fortunes of the ~arents, their humble state, and obscurity
are then denoted, espectally if Saturn and Venus are debilitated.
But if Sun and Moon are variously configurated with both good
and evil stars, the parents are subjected to vicissitudes of fortune,
never rising above the mediocrity, as, for instance, when Mars
ascends next in succession to the Sun, or Saturn to the Moon ; and
the benefics weakly situated. If the EB, in the nativity, be found
in a favourable position with the stars, configurated with the Sun
and Moon, the affairs of the parents will then remain steady and
secure ; but if the positions be discordant, and situated in a bad
place of the figure, with Malefic stars, their affairs will be \l..\\~'t<:;)­
ductive of good, and be unprofitable.
138 THE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY.

The probable Duration of Life to the Parents.


466 In reference to the father, a long life is presaged, if Jupiter
or Venus be in any way configurated with Sol or Sl:lturn---or, also,
if Saturn be in sextile or trine, and strongly dignified in other
respects. But if Saturn be debilitated, or in square or opposition
of Sol, and if both Saturn and Sun be in cadent houses, or Mars be
elevated above or rise before Sol and Saturn, then the father is
full of infirmities ; but, if in other houses, the father will die in the
early part of his life, and suffer much sickness. The shortness of
his life is particularly intimated by the Sun and Saturn being in
the IQth. or. 1st houses; and affliction, if Sun or.Saturn be in the
4th or 7th house.. If Mars be elevated above Sol, the father will
die suddenly, or receive an injury in his face or eyes; but should
Mars be so aspected .to Saturn, he will be afflicted by pains in the
limbs (177).
467 In reference to the mother-should Jupiter be configurated
to the Moon or Venus-or should Venus alone behold the Moon by
conjunction, sextile, or trine, the mother will enjoy health and
longevity. But, if Mars be posited in any of the angular or succe-
dent houses in ill aspect to the Moon or Venus, or if Saturn be
thus configurated with the Moon, retrograde, slow in motion, or
cadent, adverse accidents and disease will attend the mother.
Should Saturn or Moon, on the contrary, be swift in motion and
angular, but in ill aspect, they portend that her life will be short,
and frequently afflicted. In the same manner, should Mars be thus
aspected to the Moon, she oriental, the mother will be liable to
hurts, injuries, and sudden death; but if the Moon be occidental,
death will be occasioned by miscarriage, in parturition, by in-
flammation, or by wounds. Should Mars make these aspects to
Venus, death will then take place from fever, or sudden sickness.
Saturn afflicting the Moon when she is oriental, inflicts the mother,
disease and death from extreme cold,. or slow levers ; but should
the Moon be occidental, the danger arises from affections of the
womb, or by consumption.
" In the investigation of all these circumstances, it is highly
essential that the property of the signs, in which are situated the
stars actuating the influence, should be also taken into consideration;
and that by day the Sun and Venus should be principally observed;
and, by night, Saturn and Venus." Thus, from the nativity of a
child, may the principal concerns of the parents be ascertained;
such is the sympatny existing by this bond of nature and consang-
uinity, that little difference will be found, if compared with the
proper nativity of each parent.
'' Jf, however, after due attention has been paid to the foregoing
principals, a more specific inquiry should still be demanded, it will
then become necessary to assume the place allotted to the paternal
or maternal condition, for an horoscope or ascendant, in order to

persue the investigation. In these, as in all other cases, the mode
in which the influences are comixed, must be carefully kept in view.
Hemember, that a star does not render a vigorous influence, unless
it was fully in communication at the time of birth."
468 RuLES, 1 .-In the figure erected for the father, if the nativity
be diurnal, note the degree in which the Sun is posited in the
child's nativity, and make that degree ascending upon the horo-
scope for the father ; and conformably to that, order the cusps of
all the other houses by the rules herein laid down. 2.-lf the
figure be erected for the mother, then take the degree of Venus
instead. of the Sun, and proceed in . the other respects the same.
But if th~. ~ativity be nocturnal, take the degree of Saturn for the
r.ther, and that of the Moon for the mother. And in all these cases
it must be observed, that the nativity of the first-born is to be
preferred, then that of the second, and so on ; and that whatever
1s prenoted in relation to the parents, from these figures, is only •
such as shall happen to them after the birth of the child, and not to
anything before. 3.-The time in which any or each of these
events shall happen is to be sought out by the arcs of direction, or
distances, of that star which has the dominion in respect of the
Sun and the angles of the world ; and this I shall make perfectly
easy to the meanest understanding, when I come to treat of
directions in general (CHAP. xxxm).

OP BROTHERS AND SISTERS.

Under this head of enquiry, a general and cursory investigation


only can be performed, and an attempt to dive into minute particu-
lars would be fruitless, and would prove to be merely a vain search
after· things not open .to philosophy.
469 The next consideration in the native's geniture is the place
of brethren, and this is taken from the sign on the M. C. and the
cusp of the 1Ith (416), and the maternal places, whi<:h· is the
pos1tion of Venus by day, and the position of the Moon by night.
For, as this can only relate to children born of the same mother,
this sign on M. C., and that which succeeds it being maternal, are
considered as indicative of the mother and her children, the same
• is therefore properly allotted to brothers and sisters. Hence, pro-
vided this place be configurated with the benefics, there will be
several brothers and sisters, the number of them depending upon
the number and positions of such benefic stars (418), whether in
bicorporeal signs or single form. If, however, the malefics (417)
have superiority in number or power, or in the 4th, the brothers or
sisters will be few in number, particularly if any of the malefics
surround the Sun. Should the hostile configurations be from the
Ascendant, Saturn will then represent the· first- born brother, and
would destrof him by lingering sickness ; and Mars would destroy
them all. I both Saturn and Mars be in the 1st or 7th show
paucity of brethren.
470 Again, should the stars, which pmmise brethren be well
affected in the mundane situations, the fortunes of the brethren will
be respectable and famous; but humble and obscure if the con-
trary positions happen. If the malefics be elevated above (which
is possible) those which give brethren, their constitution will be
delicate, and their lives short. Stars constituted masculinely (..p8)
represent brothers; those femininely, sisters. The more oriental
stars represent the elder born; and those which are more occidental,
the younger. .
On the A[lreement of the Brethren.
471 Should the stars which give brethren be harmoniously confi-
gurated (2oo) with that one which is ruler of the sign allotted to
brethren, the brethren will be mutually friendly and affectionate;
and if the same planets be in good aspect to the $, the'brethren
will live toge~her in communion ; but if these stars be found in
contrary positions (201), the brethren will then be at variance,
practising enmity and fraud, the cause must be judged from those
houses' signification (199), from which they cast their ill aspects.

CHAPTER XXXII.
MALE OR FEMALE.

The foregoing speculations are deduced from an investigation of


the positions of the heavens at the time of birth; but in order to
know whether the infant be male or female during the state of
pregoancy, the time of conception only must be considered. For
this purpose we must not rest on a single basis, nor can it be
presumed on one direction alone, we must particularly-
472 Observe the situation of the Ascendant, the Sun, and the
Moon ; and those stars which possess any prerogatives in those
places, and of the mode in which the planets ruling them may be
constituted. See whether the majority are masculinely or femi-
ninely situated ; and prediction then must be regulated in con-
formity to their disposition. The masculine planets are the Sun,
Herschel, Saturn, Jupiter and Mars. Also, Mercury is common to
both genders, because at certain times he produces dryness ; at
other times moisture, and performs each in an equal ratio. The
planets are also said to be masculine when they rise before the Sun,
and between the 1st and 1oth, and between the 7th and 4th. The
feminine planets are the Moon and Venus, and especially when
they set after the Sun, and between the 4th and Ist, or between the
1oth and 7th. Also the nature of the signs are to be noticed, in
which the planets are placed. The Masculine signs are the odd
signs ; the feminine are the equal signs. Thus, from the sex
chiefly prevalent, as observed by these rules, that of the native may
be rationaUy inferred.
q.2 THE ARCANA OP PRACTICAl. ASTRAl. PHILOSOI'HV.

Of Twins.
With respect to the probability of the birth· of twins, or more, at
once, you must-
473 Observe again the Ascendant, the Sun, and the Moon; for·
when two or all three, possess n , :t , and *,or many prolific stars
cast good aspects to the same, that will be a plural conception.
The number then generated is known from the planet which is
connected with the ruling places ; and the sex or sexes are deter-
mined by the planets configurated with the Sun, Moon and Ascend-
ant. When both Sun and Moon are in the M. C., twins are
procreated. When Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars have configuration
with the 1st, Sun, and Moon, m Gemini, Sagittary, or Pisces, three
males are generated; but three females when Venus, Moon, and
Mercury are configurated in the same way. When Saturn, Jupiter,
• and Venus are thus disposed, then two males and one female will
be born ; but Venus, Moon, and Mars, then two females and one
male, and so on.
In cases of the above kind, however, it most usually happens
that the conception has not been complete, and that the children
are born with some remarkable imperfection or deformity ; a~d
these appear among the wonders of the day, although the cau..,
has a radical foundation in nature, and can be accounted for by
the Astral Philosopher. '
Of Monstr011s or Defective Birth.
474 When the Sun and Moon are cadent, without any good
aspect to the 1st house, or the angles possessed by the maleficr,
then a monstrous or defective birth. In these cases observe th~
last full or new Moon, together with the ruler thereof, and the rqlerq
of the Sun and Moon, for these unconnected with the precediD ·
full or new Moon, what is then generated will be of unnaturai
conformation. And, if in addition to this absence of connection,
the Moon and Sun be in 'Y', ~, &t, :t, or~. with Herschel, Saturn,
and Mars, in angles, what is then cenceived will not be perfectly
human shape ; but if Jupiter or Venus interpose their good aspects,
and give testimonies to Sun and Moon, then what is conceived will.
not be of human conformation, but of a fierce and savage natu~
If Mercury support the luminaries, the disposition will be agreea~ ~
to nature, but the form of the body will be unnatural (327) ; or,
Sun and Moon be in n , tt.Jt, or :, and the ruling planets discord ,
then the offspring will be of proper conformation, but monstrous
quality. If either Herschel, Saturn, or Mars give testimony in aDf
of the foregoing positions, what is then generated will be irrational,
or of ungovernable qualities; but if Jupiter or Venus give testi1
mony, the offspring will naturally possess the mental accomplish.
ments, with an hermaphroditical conformation (332). If MercUlJ

alone give testimony to the aforesaid positions of the Moon and
Sun, that which ts procreated will be deaf and dumb, though
intellectually well qualified and ingenious.
The foregoing refer to the time of conception, but what may
befall the limbs after birth is judged by the figure of birth, and
fully explained in CHAPTER xx1. and page 108.
Distinct from this species of conception, is that which, though
perfectly natutal and well conformed, yet is void of stamina (259),
and hence termed" an embryo not nourished." This kind of
conception, is that which either Sun or Moon in an angle, is in
conjunction with a malefic and that luminary giver of life (242) to
such, no duration of life.

CHAPTER XXXIII.

TO JUDGE OF TtiR EFFECTS OF TIIR ARCS OF DIRECTIONS,

475 RuLE I.-The general nature of the Planets' aspects must


be considered at the time of birth ; as also other Directions coming
up at the same time, and then judge according to the native's
s1tuation in life.
476 RuLE 2.-When direction is complete, the house in which
the body directed falls will help to point out the character of the
circumstance it will produce, as well as the signification of the
house over which both bodies rule (199). The face in which the
direction falls ; thus, if Sun or Moon come to an ill aspect with
Mercury in the gth, or with Herschel (he being in ill aspect to
Mercury at birth) may very probably denote a lawsuit ( 167). If ill
directions fall in the Ascendant, they generally affect health; if
in the 2nd, his property, &c. A good direction gives prosperity
from such things or persons as the Promissor signifies ; and also as
the house over which he presides indicates.
477 RuLE 3.-The extent and power ofthe directions are to be
properly contemplated, according to the degree of angular power of
the Promissor in the Radix, the sign in which it is posited, and
its freedom from affliction ; also the opposing influences arc to be
well considered, together with the subsequent direction. The
effect of one direction will operate till another comes up. If the
Significator be the stronger, the direction will operate with case;
but if the Promissor be the stronger, the effects will fully operate.
The ill directions of Sol and Saturn will not be so very evil if Sol
be in good aspect of Jupiter at birth.
478 RuLB 4.-If the Significator and Promissor be both weak
in the Radix, and the direction falls in either de\)\\\t\e~, \\'\~ ~\\1!.~\'11.
T
I+f. THe ARCANA OF PRACTICAL A$TRAL PHILOSOPHY.

of that direction will only be weak, which otherwise might have


been very strong ; and 1f they be both weak in the Radix, or ill
aspected, and the direction happens in a good house, and in the
dignities of the Significator ; even then the effects will not be so
strong, either for good or for evil, as if they had been essentially
strong in the Radix. Observe, also, whether the direction falls
near eminent fixed stars, and so judge, &c. If the nature of the
star agrees in nature with the significator, then the effect of
direction will be adjuvanted, et t~ice versa.
479 RuLE s.-Jn applying the effects of direction, you must
always consider the Age, Position in Life, Gender of the• native;
because their significations are always expressed according to the
Ration of the years ; that direction which may signify marriage
between 20 and 30 years of age, is very probable to come to pass;
but that same direction coming up at the age of 2 or 3, would have
no effect upon the child, but it might denote marriage, &c., to some
person in the family. Again, the directions in the child's nativity
will fall more generally upon the parents than upen the native, till
he have attained the age of 5 or 6 years.
48o RuLE 6.-If two directions come up at on.e, or nearly one,
and the same time, and the one good and the other evil (unless
they be diametrically opposed to each other), the effects of both
will appear; but especially that which cohears with the revolution
of the year, or that which appears the most powerfully posited, &c.,
at Birth (rule 4). If they agree in effect, then they are necessarily
more powerful ; as also when both Si~nificator and Promissor,
shall sympathise together ; still keeping m mind the signification of
the house at which the direction falls. Many conflicting events
frequently occur at the same period, and a person may, at one and
the same time, lose a kinsman, yet inherit his substance ; or be at
the same time in ill health, yet prosperous and advantageously
established in regard to fortune,
481 How long the effects of directions will operate is to be
judged according to their strength or debility. The effects are
often brought about by secondary direction and by transits. Tbe
effects of directions arise not simply from the impression made at
the moment of birth, nor from the heavens alone, but from the
homergene force of both, by the help of transits, by which the
powers of direction, impressed at the time of birth, are converted
mto acts; whence it is, that the effects of directions always happen
not at the time precisely limited, but a little sooner or a: little
later,
482 Why do not the effects of directions appear at the birth ?
Because the Promissor is not actually in the place of the signifi-

is then a Union of Promissors' virtue, being both actually in the


same circle of Position ; and the time is marked out by the Arc of
that motion, and then the same directions are brought to act by a
secondary or renovated impression of their virtues upon the native,.
as an addition to the original and universal impression at the
moment of birth. So that it appears there is a combination of
general and particular influences upon the native, and a conjunction
of powers and acts to produce the original impressed effects.
483 We direct the following five plctces and planets, which
signifiy all persons and matters- · · .
Ist.-The horoscope or ascendant signifies. all matters which
affect the lxxlY or mind; or change of residence, travelling, sickness,
health, birth, or .death of children, &c. When it meets good
directions of fortunate planets, or any others well dignified and
aspected, then it shows health, prospenty, pe.ace, and contentment;
but with bad directions, sickness, mischtef, crosses, adversaries,
discontentment, and other afflictions of like kind. N .B.-All
mundane directions act powerfully, and endure niany weeks.
2nd.-The M.C. has signification of employment, friendship,
possession of children, trade or profession; honour, credit, office,
mother. Mundane directions, happening at birth, act all through
life (217).
3rd.-The directions of the Sun have generally the most potent
effects between 23 and 42 years of age. Authority of action is
exercised in the mind, the career of life is entered upon, distinction
and glory are desired, puerile irregularities are relinquished for
more orderly conduct, and the pursuit of honour, preferment, and
favour of the great. It also signifies the father and his affairs.
4th.-The Moon has the greatest effect in infancy, affecting both
body and mind, also wealth and character, journeys, marriage, the
estate of his wife, women, and near kinsfolk.
sth.-The part of fortune we direct to incidents affecting the
substance or wealth, and family affairs.
484 We may direct Mercury for the intellectual faculties of the
mind, journeys, scholarship, for the mind is aroused to discipline
and instruction, imbibing the seed of learning, and developing, as
it were, the elements and germs of genius and abilities, and their
peculiar quality. Mercury has the most influence from 5 to 15
years of a~e. Venus sigmfies matrimony, love, pleasllre, orna-
ments, matds, women, &c. From her, the movement of the seminal
vessels originates, as well a·s arf unrestrained impetuosity and
precipitancy in amours. We direct Mars for animosity; war, the
estate of brethren;- for he induces austerity of life, logether with
vexation, care, and trouble, having most power between the age of
40 and 55· We direct Jupiter for glory, gravity, foresight, \}tu.d.~~~~,
sagacity, honour, respect, privilege, children, re\\~\on, 'i!.O'tlt\~\':1, &~.
146 THE ARCANA OP PRACTICAL ASTftAL PHILOSOPH\',

We direct Saturn to signify ancestors, inheritance, fears, jealousies,


mistrusts, &c., according as Saturn is well or ill affected. We
direct Herschel to signify journeys, advancement, science and
literature, inventions, discoveries, public bodies, deaths of distant
relations, and public writers : also, trades connected with danger
of loss of life therein. ·
484A I direct 'Neptune much after Herschel for inventions and
discoveries of new lights in arts and sciences, for good or evil as it
may be found at birth, or by directions and transits which may be
found therein after birth (44IA). Neptune will help, to delay
marriage, and cause separation if in or near the 7th house, or
throwing evil influences to the Moon and Venus in the radix.
Many things have come to pass which have not been accounted for
by professors, who ha\'e closed their eyes to the same, or have been
afraid to acknowledge the cause, or to dig deeper into it to try to give
the student a knowledge of its influence and effects. Now, students,
be your own professors in this matter, and try to have it opened· to
the new light upon a plan of improvement. Dip deeper into the
science of Astrology, there is far too much of that skimming on
the top, and dabbhng with the science before getting any real
knowledge of it. This may arouse the minds of some of our
writers on the subject of Neptune in the future. The cause of
this lack of knowledge may be through the want of a good work
like this, and the day is not far distant in the womb of time when
the doors of the treasure houses will be no longer locked to students,
but will be unbarred and opened to give light to the mind of every
seeker.
But to insist on tedious proofs is vain,
The art defends itself, the art is plain ;
For art well grounded forces to believe,
It cannot be deceived, nor can deceive.
Events foretold fulfil the prophecy, .
What fortune seconds, how can man deny ?
The proofs are sacred, and to doubt would be
Not reason's action, but impiety.
Students, by having this book in your own study, many events
will knock at your door. Open it, and let them enter to the
seeker.

&c., especially if Saturn is oriental of the Sun, and Sol be above
the earth. He is apt to act discreditably, his servants do the same.
Conspiracies against him, acts of violence, private enmity, &c.,
accusations and robberies. To a king it denotes tumults and dis-
content, breach of treaties, &c. And it ruely happens without
lowering the native in rank and station ; his parents suffer also by
death or misfortune. If in the 1oth, dishonour, except Saturn was

All depends on the strength of the Moon at birth; if she be strong,
it benefits greatly, bringing some new occupation of a public
nature, office, trade or dignity, &c.; also journeys, if lady of 3rd,

Watery signs. In a male nativity, if ruler of 7th, it promises
marriage or female connection, and benefits by females.

let him, therefore, beware' of disputes with superiors and men of
rank, and let him avoid any new work, for he will have no success,
let him shun quarrels and the company of soldiers, especially if the
Sun be hyleg; also let him beware of fevers if ruler of the 6th, and
inflammation, and live temperately (270); if Mars be ruler of the
4th, 8th, or I 2th, great danger of death, especially if he be the

to see friends and kindred, and relations are favourable to him.
To the 4th, if the fortunes aspect the cusp of the 4th, gain by
lands, buildings, minerals, &c., but if Saturn casts his square or
opposition, it portends loss by servants, and may be cheated by
his father, loss by old persons, servants, tenants, and by fire. · .To

latin~, and if the Sun be unfortunate in the sth, losses by pleasure;

marry, court, and combat; he overcomes his public foes, but is
very liable to sickness. To the 8th, gain by the wife or husband.
h~ fears his own death, and is perplexed by concurring inheritance.
To the gth, inclined to travel if the cusp of the gth be Cancer,
Scorpio, or Pisces, then he rnay take a short voyage, but in this
case if Herschel, Saturn, or Mars afflict the gth, then danger of
shipwreck, and the journeys will be unfortunate; Church prefer-
ment if an ecclesiastic. To the 1oth, gain by trade, honour, office,
merchandise, yet if the roth be afflicted it threatens imprisonment
or transportation. To the I xth, many good friends, much esteem
from his creditors, and he succeeds according to his moderate
wishes. To the 12th house, many enemies, and they privately
malign his character; much displeasure will arise from some acts
of deceit. He thrives by deali~g in cattle.

~nemies; in the 12th, danger of imprisonment, with other secret
sorrows ; in the 8th, death in the family ; in the 6th, sickness, or

agues and low fever, pains in the eyes, colic, palsy, dropsy, rheum-
atic affections, coughs and influenza, gout, apoplexy, &c., all
lingering diseases, according to the nature of Saturn, and the sign
he occupies. These directions bring mental troubles, disconteut,

anxieties, loss of property, lying informations, thieves and aspersi-
ons of character by low vulgar people, servants, and the mob ;
he quarrels with female relations, loses by the sea or seamen;

Ascelli, Bull's Eye, or Cor Scorpio, affliction to the eye sight, he


may die of pestilence or fire. He receives disdain and insults by
women, if he has a good wife she may die, it causes injuries to the
face or eyes, also the small-pox, stone, gravel, and gonorrhrea, &c.
If he marry under the conjunction, it is very unfortunate. To a
king, war, bloodshed, and losses.
T:te Moon to good aspect of Mars.
570 It gives a desire to martial and manly exercises, as riding,
s!.ooting, gambling, carding, dicing, and the native takes delight
in horses, the company of military men, and warlike affairs. Pre-
ferment and profit, birth of a son, or if single, he may niarry, yet
he may expect losses by women, and by dealing in horses, unless
Mars be well aspected. If Mars be weak, and the nativity denote
it he takes to drinking, gaming, or loose conduct. To a king, it
denotes increase of the army, and if at war, great battles, victories,
&c. To a merchant, dealings at <>ea, and good returns ; to a trades-
man, much business and success in his trade; to a farmer, increase
of stock, and he will be made constable, or some other parish
officer.
The Moon to conjunction of Sun.
571 It causes fevers and affections of the eyes, &c., and if the
Moon be hyleg, it may cause death. Much anx1ety of mind, many
mutations and expectations in his affairs, reverses, &c. In many
cases it denotes marriage. To merchants, &c., good trade, yet
some slur on their credit, it causes generally some great change in
the life and affairs of the native ; if Sol be strong and fortunate,
beneficial; if otherwise, the reverse.
The Moon to good aspects of the Sun.
572 Profitable and honourable friends, popularity, especially
among females of rank, &c., he has good health, and receives some
office or employment. Journeys or voyages beyond the sea,
especially if it fall in the gth house and in a watery sign, much
gain thereby, the native should exert himself under this influence
to rise in life; he is strongly inclined to marry, and if he does, it is
prosperous; if married, he may expect a child, unless Sol be
afflicted. To merchants, reputation, it brings prosperous trade;
to a king, removal of leagues, victory, honourable peace; to farmers,
good luck in cattle, and his crops are favourable.
The Moon to bad aspects of the Sun.
573 Extreme danger and affliction of body and mind, it converts
the love of some female to hatred, it causes injury by popular
tumult, &c., and the · dissembling friendship of some man of rank,
loss of oDice1 by which the native suffers. If the aspect fall near
'tO JUDGE OP 1'H£ EPPECTS OP THE ARCS OP DIRECTIONS. Ii;g
nebulous stars, there is danger of hurts or diseases to the eyes.
It produces fevers, coughs, colics, fluxes, &c., according to the
nature of the sign and house the significator and promittor are in
(18o). To a nobleman, it shows popular dislike-loss of honot.r;
to a Carmer, an ill landlord, who wrongs him ; to a poor man,
danger of the treadmill, &c.. It brings contentions and quarrels,
and oppressions from men in power, and is an ill time to speculate;
it generally endures for five or six months.
The Moon conjunction, or good aspects of Venus.
574- A pleasant, ··healthful, contented and happy period, the
nabve inclines to be merry and jocund, fond of entertainment, and
addicted to pleasure, which will be legitimate or otherwise as
Venus is well or ill aspected. He receives gifts and favours from
femalee ; if a female servant, then perquisites from ladies, is in-
clined to love-making and marriage (if capable), and free from all
care. To the married, it denotes children, chiefly females, and al;o
the marriage and settlement of children ; to merchants, good
success; to farmers, profit by Venus matters, small cattle, poultry,
&c. Generally happy marriage, obedient children, domestic
felicity, and prosperity by means of females. To kings, peace and
new allies.
T'M Moon in ill aspect of Venus.
575 Much trouble by wandering affections, illicit amours, scandal,
disrepute, and infamy in consequence. Many crosses, annoyances,
and controversies through women. Waste of estate by improvi-
dence, bad contracts, and intemperance. If the native marries
under these directions, it is unhappy, and to one whom he loves
not, and one who will not be obedient and affectionate. It l'ro-
duces Venus diseases, and, in children, if Venus be afflicted m a
watery sign, measles, small-pox, &c. ; in women, irregular and
abundant courses, diseases of the matrix, especially if Moon or
Venus be in the sth, or ruler thereof, or in Scorpio (ISJ), or in
Taurus (181).
T'M Moon in conjunction of Mercury.
576 This direction brings journeys or voyages, the latter . if
Mercury be in Cancer in the gth. It engages him in causes and
controversies sometimes, brings him much active business, is very
enerf$etic, manages his business well, and is given to study, writin~,
pubhc speaking, &c. If Mercury is afflicted at birth, the native 1s
then given to lying, dissembling, cozening. To a merchant, much
business, journeys; to a factor, many accompts. All depends on
how Mercury is aspected; as, if afflicted at b1rth, he gives troubles
by frauds, bankrupts, thefts, also sickness and accidents, according
to the sign. To a king, foreign news, active exertions among his
allies, sends ambassadors, &c.

by some fraud or forgery, according as Mercury is aspected at
b1rth. Many scandals, libels, false charges, swindling, and fraudu-
lent attempts by cunning attorneys, &c., a~ainst the native, injuries
by law and lawyers, ministers, thefts ; he 1s annoyed by his child-
ren, who are unfortunate and imprudent, and by :young persons
generally; he may lose a child. There is someumes danger of
delirium and madness.
The Moon to Dragon's Head or to the Dragrm's Tail.
579 To the Dragon's Head, the forerunner of a thriving year,
increasing the native's estate, with honour, tranquility ot mind,
health of body. To the Dragon's Tail, the nabve has strange
distempered fancies, and afflicted by the envy of Saturni.ne and
martial persons, with whom he has variance ; generally brings a
melancholic disease, proceeding from phlegm; also an impediment
in one of the eyes, generally the left, often endangers the native's
life by poison, or a sudden fall.

THE PART OF FORTUNE TO ASPECTS.


To the parallel, c"njunction, or ill aspects of Herschel.
584 This is extremely detrimental to all pecuniary procedures,
bargains are bad made under these aspects, the native suffers from
bonds, clubs and speculations. He is verr. likely rogued out of
some legacy, or has disputations about Wills or debts; no money
affairs will be successful. The good as~cts are reversed in
effects, producing a good period for getting m his debts, his specu· ·
lations are prosperous, and he may have a relation who promises
him a legacy or property-he is fortunate in clubs, bonds, and in
railways if he wish.
The Part of Fortune to the aspects of Saturn.
58 5 Thp ill aspects, waste of property, he is robbed, if he bets or
gambles he is sure to be a loser, he has many calls for money
which he is not able to pay, and if a tradesman, he has trouble in
obtaining his debts. The good aspects, he has gain by aged persons,
and by agricultural pursuits, and by those persons and tbinp men-
tioned in 362 and 170.
TO JUDGE OF THE EFFECTS OF THE ARCS OF DIRECTIONS. 173

The Part of Fortune to the asjects of Jupiter.


586 The good aspects, gifts, rewards, benefits, patronage, success
in business, and gain therein, especially by those persons and
things as in 171, and he ought to follow after distinction (354). The
bad aspects, loss by means of gentlemen, religious persons, law-
suits and vexations, falling off in trade or income, disappointment
in receiving money (338).
The Pari of FO'Ytune to the aspects of Mars.
587 To his bad aspects, loss by thievish servants, or robbery by.
thieves or soldiers, or by fires, by gaming or betting wagers, by
idle courses, lawsuits, quarrels, backbiting (164). His good aspects,
signify augmentation of wealth by means of martial persons and
things, as in 172. he may trade safely in cattle, and in maritime
articles &c., his merchandise turns out well, and he may now make
negotiations connected with trade and traffic, especially in those
articles spoken of in 364.
The Pari of Fortune to the aspects of Sol.
588 To the good aspects, honourable disbursements, he is charit-
able, the conjunction gives prodigality and consumption through
indifference and thoughtless expenses, many friends above his own
rank, yet does not save much money, he has many friends and
active employment. The ill aspects, danger of law suits, the envy
of great persons, many false accusations, and it is the forerunner of
the loss of office.
The Pari of Forlune to the aspects of Venus.
589 The good aspects, gifts from a lady, he purchases furniture,
clothes, &c. ; tradesmen do well, and merchants have good fortune.
The bad aspects, produce unnecessary expenses, occasioned by
women, he has much strife, and falls into dishonour and disgrace
through females, he is extravagant and riotous, jealous of his wife,
and is given to drink and pleasure.
The Pari of Fortune to the aspects of Mercury.
590 To his good aspects, increase of fortune by bargains, con-
tracts, accompts, learning, law, and by all witty inventions; he
might gain by voyages, commerce ; to a scholar, he gains degrees
at college, and advances his fortune by a literary publication. His
ill aspects, denote much turmoil to lawyers, false witnesses, bonds,
writings and unjust accompts, he is disposed to act unjustly, and
his credit is questioned; if in a lawsuit, he loses, and his children
trouble him; not well to speculate in writings, neither is it well to
have anything to do with disputations.
174 THE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY.

The Pari of Fortune to the Moon's Nodes.


591 To the good aspects of Moon's North Node, which is the
Dragon's Head, produces gain by means of friends, and having a
multiplicity of occupations, &c., he advances his fortunes by means
of jovial persons, as in 171. To the Dragon's Tail, waste of
estate, by fire, fury, war or disputation ; if in lawsuit, he loses, and
his enemies overcome him.
NoTE.-The Part of Fortune can have no effect with the Fixed
Stars, except it is in conjunction with them at birth. It may have
some effect by bein~ brought to the cusp of the Houses. To the
Ist, gain by his own mdustry ; to the 2nd, increase of wealth ; to
the 3rd, by kindred and short journe¥s ; to the 4th, he may gain by
agricultural pursuits, or by purchasmg minerals or property ; to
the sth, rewards, and gain to his children ; to the 6th, gam by
cattle and servants; to the 7th, damage by lawsuits and public
enemies ; to the 8th, gain by the dead, or by the means of the
wife ; to the gth, success, and gain by long journeys, literature,
&c. ; to the roth, gain by friends in trade and authority; to the
I Ith, many friends to the native's advantage; to the 12th, he may
deal in large cattle, and he will gain by horse racing and other
transactions in cattle.

THE PLANETS TO THEIR OWN ASPECTS.


592 The Moon to her own good aspects, produce profitable
changes, and removals to the native's advantage, friendship of
females, and benefits from their influence, journeys will be pros•
perous. But the Moon to her own ill aspects, froduce troubles,
losses, unfortunate changes, and the enmity o women and the
populace ; thieves are taken when the Moon is in semisquare with
her own place in their nativities.

Herschel to aspects of his own place or to the Planets.


593 To his own good aspects, unexpected benefits and profitable
changes, according to the house over which he rules, &c. (476). To
his bad aspects, unlooked for misfortune of a public character,
danger of falls, bruises, and other accidents. To unfortunate aspects
of Saturn, danger of falls from heights and drowning, imprison-
ment for neglect of family, and he may expect annoyances from
parish officers ; the fortunate aspects will give some benefits,
especially if the native be then connected with minerals, and other
things, as 362. The ill fortunate angles with Jupiter, disrespect
from religionists, loss of public office, and detriment from the popu-
lace ; if a religionist, he IS brought before the officers of the church
to answer for some misdemeanour, and is very likely to be cast out
of church fellowship-many false accusations; to fortunate angles,·

the reverse, great respect among preachers, and in the church, he
is a popular preacher, and does well in business among those
persons to whom he is joined in society. To Mars by evil aspect,
obnoxious to hurts, injuries, and diseases; to good aspects, he will
then do well to trade in metals, or anything mentioned in 172. The
conjunction of Sol, or to his ill aspects, inflammatory indisposition,
according to the sign Herschel was in at birth; if ruler of the xoth,
unexpected losses in trade ; ruler of the 2nd, unwelcomed annoy-
ances about money, and so judge of the rest of the houses. The
good transits or aspects of Herschel to the Sun, portend sudden
benefits, and public approbation, if he is a person of any notoriety ;
if ruler of the 3rd, and passing there, or is ruler, then a journey to
visit friends ; if ruler of the gth, or passing there, or 1ts lord, the
·native is studious, religiously disposed, and if a.literary character,
he gets promoted. To the good aspects of Venus, marriage, or
benefits from females, or such things as are noted in 174, or gain
by dealing in such things as are mentioned in 365; the bad aspects
of Herschel to Venus give disputation with his wife or lover, it
may be with his mother if in the 1oth, or Venus rule that house;
if she rule the 3rd, it will be with his sister. To the good aspects
of Mercury, it is excellent for writing, public speaking, or for ad-
vancing himself in learning, or for obtaining an office of trust,
especially if Mercury was strong at birth. To bad aspects of
Mercury, then the reverse of the foregoing, danger of loss from
writings, bonds, lawsuits, controversy, trade, or office. To the
place or bad aspects of the Moon, danger of sickness, not well to
take journeys, especially if either of them rules the 3rd or gth ;
disputation with wife or female foes, if she rules the 7th ; death to
a female if she rules the 8th, or be on its cusp; to the good aspects
of the Moon, advantages from females, also by speculations in those
things found in 176. To the Dragon's Head, by bad aspect, un-
expected adversity; but the good aspects produce unlooked-for
prosperity; the bad aspects of the dragon's Tail is bad, bringing
disagreement with some of his acquaintance ; but the good aspects
are of very little importance.

Saturn to his own aspects, or to those of other Planets.

594 Saturn to his own good aspects is powerful in producing


good according to the power ~e has at birth ; if ruler o~ the I st _or
6th, health generally good ; 1f ruler of the 2nd, pecumary affa1rs
are prosperous; if of the 1oth, business is permanently g'?od, ~ith
Saturnine honour ; his ill aspects act the reverse, producmg Sick-
ness or loss, or other calamities, according to the house Saturn
rules. To the body or good aspect of Jupiter, slight honour, health,
wealth and dignity from the favour of the great; to h~s ill aspects,

the bad aspects produce danger among thieves ; if ruler of the 7th
or 6th, bad servants ; if ruler of the 8th or 4th, dan~er of falls or
bruises, during these effects it will be well for the nabve to be as
little busied as possible with any new undertaking. To the body
or bad aspects of the Sun, dishonour and loss in trade, if ruler of
the 1oth or 2nd, his expectations are frustrated ; sickness if the
Sun is hyleg, or either of them rule the 6th, or 8th, or 1st; their

thoughtful, sparing, and may attempt to obtain some office of trust
(0 to ? ). Saturn to the body or good aspects of Venus, the
native is inclined to be immodest, ~iven up to pleasure and com-
pany. The ill aspects are productive of disputation with females,

matisms, if the Moon is hyleg, or ruler of the 6th or 8th ; he dis-

subject to enemies if ruler of the 12th; the good aspects produce

by or through connections formed at that time, especially if R.
Passing the 4th, evil effects, except counteracted by favourable
configurations or circumstances in operation at the same time.
Passing the 2nd, generally some ~reat change in the native's

by trade, and is honourably employed; to Mars, inclined to all

lying, cheating, wrangling with relations, and he falls into quarrels;
to Sol, honour and preferment ; but the bad aspects, busy in con·

healthful and agreeable ; to his own place, preferment ; passmg

journeys, changes, new friends, and many advantages ; if the Moon
was strong at birth, then very good ; if ill dignified, the reverse

599 To Herschel, sudden good or ill, as Herschel is dignified
(565) ; to Saturn, the native is low spirited, pensive, meets with
crosses, and is contentious about property, orwith old persons; to
Jupiter, health, contentment, good company, journeys by land, to
the married, increase of family, or pleasure from those born; to
Mars,.sickness, controversy, danger in travelling, much wrangling
with servants, and danger to the eyesight; to Venus, pleasure,
according as Venus is situated at birth ; beware of scandal under
bad aspects ; to the Sun, frowns or injuries, changes of residence ;
to Mercury, journeys, gain by merchandise, a good period for
buying and selling ; to Q, credit and repute, especially among
females ; to ~, loss of credit and estate, vexation from females ; to
e. profit, but if badly situated at birth, then loss and disappoint-
ment.
6oo I have always observed those times to be unfortunate to a
native, when the luminaries are transiting the conjunction, square,
or opposition of the radical place of Herschel, Saturn, or Mars,
especially if Sol or Luna happen to square their own place at the
same time, or if the preceding lunation was in an evil place. Some
remarkable evil event is generally at hand when the Sun is in
opposition, or the Moon is square at the same time to a radical
malefic.

CHAPTER XXXIV.

OF SECONDARY OR PROGRESSIVE DIRECTIONS,

6oi All the directions hitherto contemplated and perspicuously


explained are called PRIMARY DIRECTIONS, because they operate
sometimes several weeks (481). SECONDARY DIRECTIONS are
weaker than primary, and are those configurations and familiarities
of the planets which arise daily from their Geocentric Longitude
in the zodiacal signs, and their parallels of declination. All aspects
to the planets or to the angles, that happen on the first day after
birth, correspond to the first year, those of the second, to the second
year, and so on. The nature of the event may be very clearly
pointed out by paragraphs 593 to 6oo. These directions endure
only a few weeks ; the aspects of the Sun and Moon operate about
·two months ; Saturn and Herschel, three months ; those of Mars
are soon over, but are very effective. Parallels falling in the sign·
Capricorn or Cancer continue a great length of time in operation,
The aspects of the Moon with other planets are soon over. To
judge more particularly, we must take into consideration the
effects--

002 Each of the planets has a complete period of its own, entirely
distinct from every other motion which it may acquire, either in
the zodiac or in the world ; and a problem is prepared for the
working of these important periodic aspects. And here follow-

The effect of the periodic direction of Saturn.

003 Saturn ·directed to the radical place of the Sun is evil


according to the house in which it falls (146), causing discredit,
loss of honour, makes the native changeable, weakness of sight,
sickness, especially if the Sun be hyleg, or ruler of the 6th or 8th ;
the good aspects not much effect ; to the Moon, evil, deaths among
relations; to Venus, trouble through women, he keeps companY.
with imprudent persons, and is dishonoured by the same, and tf
Venus be lady of the 7th, prejudice to the wife, and disappoint-
ment through love affairs, &c.; to Mercury, troubles in business,
thr?ugh writings, yout~ful persons, children. disobedient (if any),
he IS dull of apprehenston, &c. ; to Mars, accidents, danger among
thieves; but the good aspects and Mars well affected, short
journeys, gain by military or martial preferment; to Jupiter,
loss of money; the good aspects, slight honour, dignity from
persons in power.

The effects of Mars by periodic revolution.

004 Mars produces a variety of evil, but the effects are soon
over. To Herschel, danger of sickness, pain in the head, under this
the native must not bathe, danger from thieves, falls, fire, gunshot,
&c. ; if in the 6th, 4th, or 8th, danger of fractures from falls ; if in
the gth or 3rd, very dangerous on railways--do not speculate ; to
Saturn's ill aspects, death to some distant relation ; if in the 1oth,
loss of office; if in the 7th, controversy or law, with aftliction to his
enemies; to Ju,eiter, gain by kindred, the clergy, great cattle,
lawyers, &c.; 1f dl aspects, then the reverse; to Venus, love in-
trigues, or marriage, especially if these were in food aspect with
each other, or with the Sun; surfeit and infamy i in bad aspects;
to Mercury, by body or bad aspect, inclined to dissemble, quarrel,
evil'speakmg, bad for writings, bonds,. lawsuits, old debts ; to the
Moon, given to drink, ill company, short journeys, slander from
females, &c. (s6g). When Mars returns to his own place at nine·
teen years of age, and then is in good aspect of Sol or Venus, the
native either marries or is engaged in love. · . .

The effects of Jupiter by periodic revolution.


6o5 Over the Sun's place, friendship, prosperity, and honourable
acquaintances, health and gain ; the bad aspect, sickness, loss of
office or honour (547); over the Moon, marriage, or· gain by a
woman, healthful and popularity, reputation from the common
people, he takes a journey, or may have a child born, if married
(567-); passing over the place of Mercury, gain in business, he seeks
the company of learned persons, he is ingenious and inclined to
science ; over Mars, in 'a male natus, friends ; in a female horo-
scope, courtship or marriage, profits by travelling, but danger of
indisposition, by commerce and by kindreds ; over Saturn, renewal
of old acquaintance, esteem may be anticipated; but if Saturn be
ill aspected, many sorrows, enemies, &c. ; over Herschel, or his
good aspects, gain, studious if either rule the gth, inventive, and
sudden benefits ; to bad aspects, the reverse.

The effects of the Sun by periodic revolution.


6o6 The Sun is an active significator of honour, credit, and
accidentally of life and health. His good aspects to Herschel,
sudden honours and advancements, the ill aspects, dishonour and
pecuniary losses, death to a distant relation; his bad aspects to
Saturn (544), or to Mars (548) is decidedly dangerous. Every one
who has the Sun affiicted at birth, has an illness or peculiar trouble
every 1oth year. The good aspects of Jupiter (546), or of Venus
(550), is very fortunate, according to the house ruled (476). Coming
to the M. C., benefits in profession or business, but 1f in bad aspect
of Mars at the time, then evil may occur ; to good aspects of
Mercury, journeys, removals active business, and successful law-
suits (552); his bad aspects, troubles by similar means, frauds from
young persons, servants, &c. (553) ; to good aspects of the Moon,
preferment, or an important change in circumstances, marriage
or courtship (555) ; his ill aspects, sickness, extravagant,_fickle-
ness, &c. (556).

6o7 The Moon is powedul, producing numerous inferior events,
which however light they may appear, do not fail to cause much
passing annoyance or transitory benefit, her effects are frequently
an~icipated nearly three weeks, but seldom prolonged. To Hers-
chel, a sudden JOUrney, or public office ; to Saturn by ill aspect,
loss and annoyances ; to good aspect, benefits (556) ; to Jupiter,
generally good (567); to Venus, benefits by females, marriage, or
children (574 and 575); to Mercury, sudden slight changes (577
and 578); to Mars, advancement (570); his ill as\)e.C\s, \Q«.«. \l"j

6o8 Venus's effects are transient, but generally good and agree·
able (484) ; over the Sun, marriage, health, an inclination to enjoy
pleasure and amusement (550); her ill aspect cause trouble by
females, and by free living, producing disease and discredit, dis-
appointment in marriage, slander, and many vexations (551); her
aspects to Jupiter are good or ill according to Jupiter's power in
the figure at birth ; to Saturn or Mars, evil, disappointment, and
sickness; to Herschel, benefits in the family; to Mercury, fond of
study and science; to the Moon, or M. C., honour, pleasure, and
prosperity (571); to ill aspect, sickness and sorrow, produced from
previous pleasure.

1 he effects of Mercury by periodic revolution.

6og Over Herschel, turmoil with money and bills, the native's
creditors are unjust, and his debtors are dilatory. The situation of
Mercury must be particularly noted, especially those planets with
which he is in parallel, as he partakes strongly of the nature of
those planets with which he is connected by aspect, and will act
accordingly. If evil at birth, and come to ill aspect of the Moon,
or the hyleg, mental diseases, epilepsy, &c., may be expected.
His good aspects generally give journeys, removals, much activity
in business, and general success.

The effects of Herschel by periodic revoluti011.


610 Whatever good he may produce, when aspecting, will be of
a sudden description, and out of the common course of things.
His evil aspects to the hyleg are very evil, bringing death into the
family; in ill aspect to Moon, Sun, or Venus, decidely evil in
domestic affairs, disorder and turmoil ; he is equally evil in love,
-and peculiarly inimical to the fair sex ; over Saturn or Mars, very
evil, great care must be taken in health and wealth, matrimony and
business.
6n Upon delivering judgment on any of these species of direc-
tions, it is absolutely necessary to pay the greatest attention to the
nature and quality of the aspects, for it often hap~ns that a pri·
mary direction may import much good, when, at the· same time, a
mahgnant secondary, or a periodic configuration may come up of
so strong and powerful a nature as to frustrate all beneficial effects
portended by the former. The want of attending to this, has
frequently confounded our modern practitioners, who, confiding in
the benignant tendency of some extraordinary good aspect in the
zodiac, have promised an advance of fortune to the native, which
has never come to pass, because of counter-aspects of this latter
order. Hence it must appear to eve-cy rational mind, and experi·
OF REVOLUTIONARY FIGURES.

mental astral student, that the strictest caution, and the utmost
deliberation are necessary in forming our opinions on the direc-
~ions upon a nativity, for, if at least we err in this, all our labour is
lost, and the unfortunate enquirer is deluded with vain expectations
of a happy run of good fortune, or fearful of some dreadful catas-
trophe, neither of which, by the nature of the stars, was. ever
intended to happen.
As the planet Neptune is one of an almost unknown character,
so far as its influence is concerned, we must class it in the same
~ategory as Herschel, as I consider its influence is very similar
(page 146).

CHAPTER XXXV.

We do not consider any more kinds of directions than the two


following, namely, xst-
OF REVOLUTIONARY FIGURES.

612 A revolutionary figure is the exact position of the Heavens


at the moment the Sun returns to the same degree and minute he
possessed the moment the native was born. The judgments of a
revolution are easy to be understood, by considering in what house
and sign in the revolution, the radical significators are posited, for
according to the cordant or discordant positions and configurations,
so must we judge. If the radical figure be unfortunate, the native
will reap but little benefit from a promising revolution, for a radical ,
evil can never be eradicated by an accidental good, though the evil
may be mitigated.
613 Compare the figure of the revolution with that of birth, and
observe how the cusp of the houses and significators agree, or are
disposed, for upon these the judgment depends. If the revolu-
tional Ascendant and M. C. be in good aspect with the radical, or
be the same with the angles, signify good health, prosperity, and
an increase of substance, especially if the lords of the Ascendants
be well dignified. If the Ascendant of the revolution be in bad
aspect with the angles of the radix, then evil will be felt that year,
according to th~ signification of the revolutionary Ascendant did
signify in the radix.
6 I 4 If the planets are returned to their radical place, or in
~extile, trine, parallel, or any good aspect thereto, shew a good
revolution. If the planets are in bad aspect to their radical sit-
uation, then evil may necessarily be anticipated.
6JS If the sign of the radical 6th, 7th, or 12th, be the xst of the
r_~yol~~ion, ~n that year may be expected . sickn.ess1 l:?~"t\. \c::l~.._,

imbecility of body, and such things as those houses signify, and


more especially if those houses or their lords were evilly disposed
at birth. The sign of the 7th in the radix being the xst, of the
revolution, shows contentions, animosities, lawsuits, the native
either marries or desires to do so.
616 Whenever you find the lord of the radical 2nd, Part of For-
tune, or Jupiter, in the revolution 2nd, the native shall be pecuni-
arily aovantaged, and augmention of patrimony by thmgs ·or
persons signified by that house, &c. If the lord of the 2nd of the
radix be in the 3rd, of the revolution, denotes gain by short jour~
neys, kindreds, or neighbours; and if lord of the 2nd be also in
sextile or trine, with the lord of the 3rd in the radix, the above
effects will be felt. If with the lord of the 4th, by a father, pros-
perity. If in the sth, or in sextile or trine to its lord, gain by
children, speculation, gaming, sports, selling of spices, liquors. If
in the 6th, or in sextile or trine with its radical lord, gain by
servants, workmen, small cattle, tenants. Proceed in this way
through all the houses, and if the significators be evil, then judge
ill from the above portentions, &c. .
6 17 So that it appears, that the significators of substance in a
revolution is not the lord of the 2nd in the revolution, but the lord
of the 2nd in the radix ; the same understand of the rest of the
houses. The revolution is firmer if the same sign ascend as that
which ascended at birth ; the same, if those planets which were
lords of the house in the radix be lords of the same in the revo-
lution, though they possess not the same sign. !fin the revolution
any of the planets behold the radical places of Sun, Moon, Jupiter,
Part of Fortune, or Venus, by good aspects, are very good signs;
and so much the more if they behold them in the revolution with
fortunate aspects. But the contrary effects will be felt if the
aspects are evil, as 201. ·
618 In every revolution in which the planets are contrarily
disposed to those in the radix, though of themselves be tolerably
situated, yet they signify evil, as if at birth all the planets were
above the earth and the revolution, any planets well aspected below
the earth, they will have ~ut little portention to good, &c. · Ill may
be expected when Herschel, Saturn, Mars, or e9 passes over the
Ascendant or M. C. of the revolutional figure.
6rg Observe in what house the Sun is posited, Qnd of what he is
ruler, and accordingly those things which he signifies will be
either good or evil, honourable or dishonourable, joy or sorrow,
according as the Sun is well or ill placed in the revolution, and the
good or evil may be known from the house in which the Sun is
posited at the revolution, and by the nature of the impediting
planet.
62o The planets of a revolution have no relation to the native,
as lord of the houses of the revolution, but· only from theu· radical

pdsition and domination, for the ·I st of a revolution 1s not the


native's Ascendant, but only an accidental Ascendant.
621 The transit of body or conjunction is much more powerful
than any aspect ; and Sun or Moon transiting Herschel, Saturn,
or Mars, or their opposition, especially if the luminaries be rulers
of the ascendant, will prove inimical, death or sickness if the hyleg
be afflicted by direction. If Herschel, Saturn, Mars, or Mercury,
was radically unfortunate, although they transit the angles ; the
places of Jupiter, Venus, Sun, or Moon, signify no good, but losses,
crosses, troubles, quarrels, and ill management of affairs, the same
also when they pass their square or opposition ; but when they
pass their sextile, or trine, are adjuncts of good if they have dignities
in those places. We are to take great care of the transits, as we
have before noticed their effects in part, together with the ingresses
and Problems are provided for them. As for the-

LUNATIONS.

622 They are the full and new Moon immediately preceding any
important event, which generally show, by the position of the
luminaries, as regards the planets' places in the radix, and at the
revolution the nature of the events to follow.

OF TRANSITS OF PLANETS.

623 Transits are the planets' passing over important places of a


radical figure, its Asc., M. C., and other parts of primary significa-
tion ; also of the eratics aspecting the place of a planet, or the
passing of one body over the place of another in both nata and
revolutions. Transits of good planets signify good, but by evil
places and aspects they denote evil ; transits of Herschel, Saturn,
and jupiter, are of great importance, for they never pass without
sensible effects. Transits of the planets are easily perceived by
SIMMONITE's EPHEMERIS, in which the aspects are also calculated
to the very moment when they take place. Observe the day on
which any of the planets by body or aspect, good or evil, pass any
of the cusps of the houses of the natus, or that degree wherein the
planets possessed at birth.
624 In all transits observe the inherent properties of the tran-
sitor, the radical determination of the transit, and the state,
capacity, or condition of the native at the time of the transit, as
the transition may be strong or weak-fortunate or unfortunate-
as to the planet or place transited. If Herschel, Saturn, Mars, or
Mercury was radically unfortunate, although they transit the body
or good aspect of the angles or planets, they signify no good, but
the contrary. If one bad transit is 'Speedily succeeded by another

coherent direction or revolution, presages a duplication of the


signified evil, and consequently augments danger and misfortune.
625 The actual transit of the Moor;t continues about 6 days7
that of the Sun, 12 days-that of Tup1ter, 20 days-that of Saturn,
30 days-that of Mars, about 9 clays-that of Mercury, 6 days-
that of Venus, 9 days-and the effect of Herschel's transits, not
less than 40 days. The transits of Luna discover the almost
daily occurrences of life, and she must be particularly attended to.
See on what day she casts a good aspect to the cusp of the 2nd or
its ruler, or a planet near its cusp, or to the $, and say that is a
good day, and profitable for getting in money, or transacting any
bargain; but the evil aspects to these act contrarily.

orders in business, situations, &c., as the 1oth house signifies. The
ruler of the 1st, then health if a benefic; sickness if a malefic; to

ON THE DOCTRINE OF THE SPHERE AND


ASTRO-MATHEMATICS.
I By the Doctrine of the Sphere is meant the Solution of such
Problems as relate to the Heavens, or Concavity of the visible
World ; in measuring the Circles thereof, the Angles they make
with each other, I shall show in a method more concise and metho-
dical than any other. I here combine Spherical Geometry,
Spherical Trigonometry, Astronomical Problems, and the use of
Logarithms, which are inseparably connected therewith.
2 A Sphere, commonly called a globe, is a round body, having
every point on its surface equal distance from a point within,
called the centre.
188 THE ARCANA 01' PRACTICAL ASTRAt.. PHtt..OSOPHY.

3 If on a clear night you place yourself in a situation in which


the view of the ·horizon is uninterrupted, and attentively observe
the heavens, you will see the stars, as fixed in a concave spherical
surface, which surface is everywhere bespangled with an inmJmer-
able multitude of shining stars, which are continually changing
their places.
Some stars rise above the horizon towards the east, some dis-
appear towards the west, and others never reach the horizon, all
these performing their motions, whilst their relative positions
remain the same.
There are various methods of the construction of the sphere, but
the most simple, and most generally employed, is the stereographic,
in which all the circles of the sphere are represented by straight
lines or circles. Suppose a transparent globe, on whose surface is
the representation of the heavens, and the eye placed in any part
of that surface viewing the opposite side, the lines should then
appear as is represented by this projection.
4 To project an object of the sphere in plano, is a true geomet-
rical declination of the circles of the sphere, or any assigned part
of them upon the plane of some one great circle, as on the horizon,
meridian, equinoctial, ecliptic, colours, or on the tropics, &c., and
we delineate this Stereographic Projection, which supposes the eye
to be but go degrees distant from, and perpendicular to the plane
of the projection. That plan~. upon which the object is projected
or delineated, is called the plane of projection, or primitive; and
the point in which the eye is situated is called the projecting point,
or the point of sight.

To Project the Sphere Stereographically upon the Plane


of the Meridian.
5 The foregoing st~reographic projection of the sphere is that in
which a great circle is assused as the plane of the projection, and
·the opposite equinox as the projecting point.

celestial equator. This is also the honzon.
7 P P, the poles of a sphere are the extremities of the axis, as
P P are the poles of the circle P B P. The poles of great circles
are each go degrees from the circumference of the circles. In the
figure (2) the arcs P V P, P B P, between the great circle and its
pole, P, are arcs of go degrees.
8 E Q, Equator, a great circle which separates the northern

of Aries. The Sun arrives here about mid-day, or noon. This is
also Medium Creli, or Mid-heaven, that degree of the ecliptic
which is upon the meridian at any time of our day, also called
Upper Meridian.
IO N, the Nadir (an Arabic term), is the point of the heavens
directly under the feet of the observer, and diametrically opposite
to the zenith. The Sun arrives here at mid-night. This point is
also called the Imum creli, or under-heaven; being the cusp of the
fourth house.
1 I s; 1-j>, the Ecliptic. The apparent great circle in the heavens
in which the Sun appears to move in the course of the year, n
shows its north pole, and q its South pole. It intersects the
equator into two points, called the vernal and autumnal equinoxes,
because, when the Sun is in these points, the days and nights are
equal all over the earth. It is called the ecliptic, because all the
eclipses of the luminaries must necessarily happen in this line (22).
12 P n, the Obliquity of the Ecliptic. The ecliptic and equator,
being great circles, must bisect or equally divide each other, and
their inclination, or difference, is called the obliquity of the ecliptic,
or the Sun's greatest declination.
190 THE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY.

13 H P, Elevation of the pole or star is its height, in degrees,


between the pole and the horizon, or equal to the latitude of the
place at birth, or country, observatory, &c.
14 P V P, P 0 P, P A L q, are meridians of terrestrial longitude
which are the halves of great circles drawn round the earth through
its poles and passing the latitude of any place in its meridian.
Longitude, on the earth, is the distance of any place east or west
of Greenwich, according to British computation.
15 n, A, I, q--n, 1, *, q, &c., are meridians of celestial longitude,
and is the distance of any heavenly body from first point of the
zodiacal sign Aries, o0 o, measured on the ecliptic. The Longi-
tude and Right Ascension are measured in this direction. In the
right angled triangle E9 B 0, the line E9 0 is the Sun's longitude,
or an arc of the ecliptic, from the first point of Aries. E9 B, the
Sun's Right Ascension, or an arc of the equator, from the first
point of Aries (2o).
I6 e 0, on the ecliptic, in the right angled triangle, is the Sun's
declination, and the angle B e 0 is the obliquity of the ecliptic,
measured by the arc Q QD, E rs. .•
N .B.-When the Sun, or any other heavenly body, is in that part
of the ecliptic which is Q QD towards the north pole, the declination
is called north, and when in that part which is E rs towards the
south pole, the declination is south.
17 P * represent the circle of latitude; n A, the complement of
the star's latitude ; I A, when the star is on the north s1de of the
ecliptic, it is called north latitude; but if on the southern side,
then it is called south latitude. P A, the complement of the star's
declination B A.
18 The angle P n A, the complement of the star's longitude.
The supplement of the angle n P A, measured by the arc V Q,
equals the complement of the star's right ascension (151)
All spheres are divided into two, great and small circles.
19 A Great Circle of a sphere is a circle drawn upon its surface,
whose plane passes through the Ell centre of the sphere, as P B P,
Z 0 N, are great circles. Every section of a sphere is a circle. A
Small Circle of a sphere is a circle drawn upon its surface, whose
plane does not cut the centre of the sphere. Two Great Circles of
the sphere crossing each other, into two e~ual parts or semicircles,
as both the great circles P Ell P, Z 0 N, d1vide each other into two
equal parts or semicircles. ·

intersect the equator in a point which represents the place of the
Sun referred to the equator. The arc of the equator intercepted
between this point and the vernal equinox, .is called the Su.n'J

the Sun and the same equinox, is denominated the Sun's longitutfe.
ADd the arc of the great circle intercepted between the Sun and its
place referred to the equator, is called the Sun's declination.
21 The Tropics are two small circles, parallel to the equator, at

is called the tropic of Cancer, and where the Sun reaches in
declination about the longest day; and· that to the south, the
tropic of Capricorn, where the Sun arrives about the shortest day.
22 Solstitial Points are the first poiDt of Qa, and the first point

At these points, the Sun seems to stand still, or be at the same

23 The Axis is the diameter about which it rotates, which does
not shift its position, while the other parts describe circles around
it.
24 Azimuth, or vertical circles, are great circles of the sphere.
passing through the zenith and nadir, and are perpendicular to the
horizon. Let a person stand at (B, and let H H be his horizon,
then the circle Z 0 N is a vertical or azimuth circle. Azimuth of
any celestial object is an arc of the horizon, contained between the
east and west point of the heavens, and a vertical circle passing
through the centre of that object (2).
25 The Horizon is a great circle (19) perpendicular to the
vertical, or go degrees distant from the nadir and zenith, thus
divichng the world into two equal parts, or hemispheres; it is the
diametei of the sphere, as HH. The eastern or left hand H, is the
ascendant, or rst house; the western H is the descendant, or 7th
house (9 and 10).

THE CIRCLE, AND TRIGONOMETRICAL LINES.


F
192 THE ARCANA OJ' PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY.

26 A Circle is a plane figure bounded by on$ line, called the


circumference, every point of which is equally distant from a ,
certain point within the figure, called its centre.
In the figure, C is the centre, E D A I is the circumference,
which is sometimes called the periphery. ·
27 The Diameter of a Circle is a line drawn through the centre,
and terminated at both ends by the circumference, as A E is a
diameter.
28 Every diameter is double the radius, and divides the cir:le
into two equal parts. The terminating points of the diameter are
sometimes called poles, as D and I.
29 The Radius of a circle is a line drawn from the centre C to
the circumference, as C A ; also E C and D C are called radii.
30 A Semicircle is a segment cut off by the diameter, or half the
area of the circle, and contains 18o degre'es, as IDA.
31 A Chord of a Circle is a straight line joining the two extremi-
ties of an arc, as B G L, thus cutting the circle into two unequal
parts.
32 A Quadrant is the half of a semicircle, or quarter of the whole
circle, consisting of go degrees, as E D C.
33 All circles, great or small, are divided into 360 equal parts,
called degrees; each degree into 6o minutes; each minute into 6o
seconds. The degrees will be great or small, according to the size
of the circle.
34 An Arc of a circle is any part of the circumference.
35 A Segment of a circle is the arc cut oft by a straight· line, as
BAL.
36 A Tangent to a circle is a straight line, which touches the
circle, and on being continued does not cut it, as A F is a tangent
37 The Sine B G of an arc A B is a straight line drawn from B,
one of its extremities, perpendicular to the diameter A E, which
passes through the other.
38 The Versed Sine A G of an arc A B is that portion of the
diameter A E upon which the sine is perpendicularly intercepted
between the sine and the arc.
39 The Secant C F of an· arc A B is a straight line drawn from
C, the centre, to F, the farthest extremity of the tangent.
40 The sine, versed sine, tangent, and secant, of an arc A B, are
called the sine, versed sine, tang-ent, &nd secant, of the angle A C B,
measured by the arc, to the radius A C.
ASTkONOMICAL PkOBLBMS. 193
41 The Complement of an arc A B, or angle ABC, is what it
~ants of a quadrant, or aspect of go degrees. Thus, B D or B C D
1s the complement of A B, or A C B.
42 The Supplement of an arc A B, or of an angle A C B, is what
it wants of a semicircle, or 18o degrees. Thus, BE, or AM, is
the supplement of A B,. and .BCD, or A C M the supplement of
ACB.
43 The Explement of an arc A B,· or of rm angle A C B, is what
it wants of the whole circumference, or of four right angles. Thus,
B D E ·I A is the explement of A B, or B 0 E M I L A C of
ACB.
An arc, or angle, and its supplement, have the same sine, tangent,.
and 8ec"ant, for B G is the sine of R E, or B C E, A F the tangent
of A M, or A C M, and C F the secant of A M or A M C. B C E
the supplement to two right angles. The radius is equal to the
sine, or versed sine of go degrees, and to the tangent, or cotangent of
·.4-5 degrees.

50 The Obliquity of th~ Ecliptic and the R. A. of the M. C. given to


find the degree of the Ecliptic, on the roth House, or Meridian.
RULE.-To the cosine (9·962526 i the obliquity of the ecliptic, add
the cotangent of the R. A. of the M. C. from the nearest equinox,
'Y' or 6 (46), and the Sum.is the cotangent of its longitude from
the same equinoctial point.

ASTRONOMICAL PROBLEMS.

57 EXPLANATION OP THE TABLE OP POLES OF HOUSES.


The first column shows the Poles of the rst and 7th houses,
which is always the latitude of the country; the second column
shows the Poles of the 3rd, 5th, gth, and I rth houses ; and the
third column the Poles of the 2nd, 6th, 8th, and 12th houses. If
the latitude of the place be anywhere between an even degree and
half a degree, a proportion may be readily calculated for the differ.
ence, thus, if the latitude be that of Sheffield 53° 25', and it be
required to find the pole of the 12th house, say, as 30 miles are to
the difference between the poles of the 12th, for 53° and 53° 30',
which is 33 minutes, so is the difference of latitude 25 to the differ·
ence of pole 27!', to be added to the pole of the 12th for 53 degrees.
Hence, the pole of the 12th, at Sheffield, is 42° 59!', which is
correct with that found by trigonometry to within t a minute,
its true pole being 42° 59'.

found by the logarithms ; but when there are various operations,
the final error is scarcely appreciable, as the slight inaccuracy of
one operation generally balances that of another.

of the house to the cotangent of the Pole of the House ; the sum \.~
the cotangent of the first angle, which cal\ the anl6\e t\..
2U THE AltCANA OP PRAC'I'ICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY.

RuLE I . -If the Oblique Ascension of the House be less than go


degrees, or more than 270 degrees, add 23 degrees · 28 minutes to
angle A, and the sum will be the second angle, or angle B. When
these are added and exceed go degrees then subtract it from I8o
degrees. But if the Oblique Ascension of the House exceed go
degrees, or be less than 270 degrees, then subtract 23 degrees 28
minutes, and the remainder is angle B. When angle B is less than
go degrees, the longitude must be reckoned from the same equin-
octial point from which the Oblique Ascension was taken.
RULE 3.-Add together the Arithmetical complement of the
cosine of B ; the cosine of A and the tangent of the Oblique
Ascension of the House ; the sum is the tangent of its longitude,
from the equinoctial point Aries or Libra, according as it was
nearest to either by Oblique Ascension. If between Cancer and
Libra subtract from I8o degrees (46)

EXAMPLE I.

What is the cusp of the uth house on the 24th of May, 4h. 4ffi·
35s. A.M., I8Ig ?
According to Problem VIII, you find the Oblique Ascension of
the uth house 33I 0 8' from Aries, being more than 270° subtract
this from 360 degrees, the remainder_is 2SO 52' from Anes (46).

As the Angle B was less than go degrees we must subtract this


from the first of Aries, from which we took it, which leaves 22 :::
26 for the cusp of the I Ith house.

EXAMPLE :2.

What degree of the Ecliptic occupies the 12th house?


According to Problem viii, the Oblique Ascension of the 12th
is I 0 'Y' 8'.
AST.ItONOMICAL PROBLEMS. 213
Cosine of Oblique Ascension I 8 = 9,999915
Cotangent of Pole of 12th 40 54= 10,o62368

Tang. of Ob. Asc. I 2th 1'Y' 8 8,296292
Tangent of I degree 59 minutes of Aries = 8,539633
As both the Oblique Ascension of the house and angle B are less
than 90 degrees, we take the tangent of Rule 3rd from the 1st point
of Anes (46), because the Oblique Ascension of the cusp of the 12th
is nearest Aries.

214 THE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY.

EXAMPLE 5·
What point of the Ecliptic occupies the 3rd House, whose Pole
is always the same as the I Ith House?
Note.-The pole of the 3rd house is 23° 48', its oblique ascension
is 91° 8', as may be seen in problem 7, and as it falls nearest to
Libra it must be worked from that point, according to the 2nd
part of the rule, 2nd in this problem gx,8-x8o = 88° 52', from the
first point of Libra (46).
EXAMPLE.

Angle B 63 58
As cosine of angle B 63° 58'= (Ar. co.) 357640

Or the 3rd is 79° o' equal to xI QO o, when subtracted from I8o
degrees IOI 0 or I I QO o, or the cusp of the 3rd house, or the point
of the ecliptic where the circle of position cuts it.
Thus have I given the method of erecting a Figure by the
Doctrine of Triangles. You need only to calculate for the six
houses herein shown; for the cusps of the other six are always the
same degree and minute of the opposite sign. The figure of
heaven at the birth of Queen Victoria.
The foregoing rules will serve for South latitude by adding 23°
26' instead of subtracting; and subtracting where it requires
adding in North Latitude, or by putting the opposite signs in the
.opposite houses.

PROBLEM XXV.

7I To erect a Figure of the Heavens by the "TABLE of HousEs"


at any given moment.
RuLE I.-Find the Sun's Right Ascension the previous noon to
the time given, in hours, minutes, and seconds. (After proportion
is made for the Sun's A. R.)
RULE 2.--To this A. R. add the time given from the preceding
noon, this sum will be the A. R. of M. C. for the hours which have
elapsed since noon preceding.
AST.RONOMICAL PROBLEMS. 2IS
Note.-If the result exceed 24 hours, take the excess of 24 hours,
and find that for theM. C., &c.
RuLE 3.-Find the longitude answering to the R. A. in the
column of the "Table of Houses," for the latitude of Birth, headed,
" time from noon," thus found the number required, in the next
right hand column will be the degree occupying the 1oth house.
RuLE 4.-In the line with this is found the longitudes on the
cusps of the first six houses, namely, the nth, nth, 1st (asc.), 2nd,
and 3rd.
Having thus completed the six eastern houses, find the signs and
degrees, exactly opposite to each of them, and enter the degrees
on the cusps of the opposite, or western six houses. The opposite
houses and signs to these (which are always the same) are-

The longitude nearly equal to this, casting away the odd second,
is 12° ::::, which I place on the zoth house, and the same degree of
the opposite sign I 2° 5\, on the 4th.
In the (3rd) next column, I find 9° *, which must be placed on
the I zth house, and the same degree of the opposite sign 9° 'IIJ!, on
the sth.
In the 4th column I find 26° of 'Y', place this on the I 2th, and
the opposite 26° ::!:l., on the 6th house .
. In the sth column I find 20 n 27, on the ISt, and then 20 t 27
on the 7th or opposite house.
In the 6th are 7° of I!D, on the 2nd, and 7° lfJ place on the 8th.
In the 7th column I see 23° I!D on the 3rd house, and 23° lfJ must
be placed on the 9th house.
The Figure now exhibits the Signs of the Zodiac at the afore-
mentioned time of Birth.

PROBLEM XXX.

76 To find the declination of a Star from the" Tables" jwepared


for that purpose.
Ruu.-Find the proportional part for the Longitude and Lati-
tude by the Rule of Three.
EXAMPLE I.

The Sun is in 2 degrees 6 minutes of Gemini, the declination of


2 degrees is 20° 35', that of 3° is 20° 47', difference 12 minutes;
then say, as 6o minutes are to 6 minutes, so are 12 minutes to 1
minute, which added to the declination of 2 de~rees, as the Sun is
increasing in declination,· and the Sun's decbnation will be 20
degrees 36 minutes, and as he is in a northern sign the declination
is north.
EXAMPLE 2.

Find the declination of the Moon in Queen Victoria's nativity.


The Moon is in 3° 33' ofn., with 3° 33' of north latitude. Under
3° of Gemini, opposite 3 degrees of longitude, are found 23° 42';
and in the same column opposite, 4 degrees of longitude, are found
23" 54', the difference is 12 minutes, then say, 6o: 22:: 33: 7' plus.

After finding the distance of the Part of Fortune from a House
by this method, then I allow it a semiarc of go degrees, and it will
work the direction correct, according to the true mundane distance
of the Moon from the Sun.
N .B.- The Part of Fortune is never moved or directed like the
Planets-it is the Planets that are directed to the Part of Fortune's
mundane aspects.
The Part of Fortune is always the same distance from the
Ascendant, in the order of the signs, as the Sun is from the Moon ;
to prove this being correct, here follows the calculation-

INFORMATION.

" These are the only data required to proceed to calculate the
arcs of direction, by which not only the nature of the events which
shall befall the native may be foreseen, but also the period when
they shall occur (to within a few days) may be undoubtedly ascer-
tained." (For further information see Arcana, Problems 142 and
14,3)·
A direction, or an arc of direction, is the pathway or track
described in the heavens by any planet that is significator, or that
assmnes the dominion or government of life, or any other accident
or event peculiar to the native, from the moment of birth to its
meeting or forming an aspect with the anaretas or promittors, at
which time the event, be it what it may, that is indicated thereby,
comes to pass. For as all the heavenly bodies constantly move in
circles, their progress, whether for a long or short time, will
necessarily form arches, the content or degrees of which, being
accurately found, and measured, are equated by the solar motion,
will describe the length of time, whether it be years, months, or
days, which the significator will be in forming the arc of direction
which produces the event.
99 If the planet directed should pass the horizon in forming
aspects, that is if the arc of direction should be longer than the
planet's distance from the horizon, then its other semiarc must be
used for those aspects which fall beyond the horizon. Great care
is to be taken to avoid errors by taking the wrong semiarc ; this
may be done by observing that if the aspect occur above the earth,
ASTRONOMICAl. PROBLEMS.

the SEMI-DIURNAL ARC is to be taken; and if below the earth, the


SEMI-NOCTURNAL ARC of that planet which is directed, must be
taken.
100 Directions in mundo.-In all cases if thE" secondary distance
of a planet be on the same side of the cusp whence the primary
was taken, when the aspect is completed, SUBTRACT the primary
and secondary distance from each other, and the difference will be
the arc of direction. But if the primary and secondary distance
be on different sides of the cusp whence the primary was taken,
then add them, and the sum will be the arc of direction.
IOI Mundane parallels are formed when two planets aTe equi-
distant from the angles of a figure, and are, like all other mundane
aspects, measured by the semiarcs of the planets ; thus a star on
the cusp of the seeond house would be in mundane parallel to
another on the cusp of the 6th, because they are both two houses
distant from the 4th ; a star on the cusp of the gth is in the same
parallel with another on the cusp of the I Ith, because they are equi-
distant from the midheaven, &c.
102 Zodiacal Aspects.-If the Sun or moon be exactly on the
meridian, then it has no pole, and the arc of direction must be
found by Right Ascension. If the Sun or Moon be exactly on the
horizon, it will have the polar elevation of the horizon itself; which
is always the latitude of the Birth place. The Ascendant, when it
is directed in the zodiac, must always be directed under the pole
or latitude of the place of birth.

RuLE.-The difference between the Star's M.D. or 10th house
and six-fifths of its semi-diurnal arc for the Arc of Direction.
Note.-If the Planet fall between the xoth and 4th westward,
this is a quintile of the Ascendant.
EXAMPLES.

I.-Take Jupiter's for example.


Jupiter's semi-diurnal arc is 68° I8' and six-fifths =8I" 57'
Subtract Jupiter's distance from 1\1, C. ·=x8 30
The M. C. are to the trecile of Jupiter =63 27

The amount is the ~ix-fifths = 124 51
Take I\lercury's Mid. Dist. 95 55
Remains the arc of direction = 28 56 the M. C. trecile ~.

PROBLEM LIX.

II2.-To direct theM. C. to the trine of a;zy Planet.


RuLE.-If the Planet he above the Earth add one-third of its
semi-nocturnal arc to its own arc, from which subtract its M.D.,
and the remainder is the Arc of Direction; or, add one-third of its
semi-nocturnal arc to the square already found, and the sum will
be the Arc of Direction.
ASTRONOMICAL PROBLEMS.

EXAMPLES.
The whole semi-diurnal arc of Herschel is 56° 56
His semi-nocturnal arc is 123° 4', and one-third is 41 I

97 57
From which subtract his 1\J. D. 38 24

M. C. to the trine of Herschel 59 33


Secotzd way.
The 'M. C. to the square of Herschel is 18° 32'
Add one-third of semi-nocturnal arc 41 I

M. C. trine of Herschel by the second way 59 33


If originally under the Earth.
RuLE.-Take the difference between two-thirds of its semi-noc·
turnal arc and distance from 4th cusp, and the remainder is the arc
of direction.
EXAMPLE,
The Sun under the Earth.
Sol's Mid. Dist. from I. C is 61° 8'
His semi-nocturnal arc is 61° 46', and two-thirds= 41 1 I

M ..C. to the trine of the Sun= 19 57


N.B.-In the former of these two Examples Herschel is brought
to the cusp of the sixth, which forms a quinqunx of the ascendant,
which is always the case if the Planet is posited between the xoth
and 4th westward. But if between the the zoth and 4th ea!>tward,
the trine is a semi-sextile to the ascendant, or sextile to the 4th
house or I. C., and it is also the planet's distance from the second
house.

PROBLEM LX.

250 THE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHIL\)SOPHY,

A seco1ul way.
RuLE.-Add one-half of the Planet's semi-nocturnal arc to the
square, and the sum is the arc of direction. .
EXAMPLE.
Mercury's square to M. C. is 8° 8'
Semi-diurnal arc is 75° 57', the one-half is 37 58
M. C. Sesquisquare of Mercury as before 46 6
A third way.
RuLE.- If in the 2nd subtract one-sixth of the semi-nocturnal
arc from the trine, or if it is in the 5th, add one-sixth of the semi-
nocturnal arc to the trine, and this is a sesquisquare to the
ascendant.
EXAMPLE.
'M. C. trine of Mercury is 33°27'
Mercury's semi-nocturnal arc is 75° 57' and one-sixth=12 39
M. C. sesquisquare of Mercury=46 6
Another way.
RuLE.-If originally below the Earth, the difference between one-
half of its semi-nocturnal arc and its M.D. is the arc of direction.
Note.-Let this direction be found.between the 7th and 4th, it
will be the sesquisquare to both the M. C. and the ascendant. It
is also one-half ot the semi-nocturnal arc of the square of ascendant,
or opposition of M. C. (Art. 219). When formed between the
Ascendant and 4th, it is a semisquare to the ascendant.

semi-nocturnal to the sesquisquare first obtained, and the sum is
the arc of direction.
RuLE 2.-If between the first and 4th subtract one-tenth ofthe
semi-nocturnal arc from the sesquisquare, and the remainder will
be the arc of direction.

RuLE.-Add one-third of the semi-nocturnal arc to the trine
first found, or two-thirds of the semi-arc to the square, and the sum
will be the arc of direction ; or the difference between one-third of
the semi-arc and its M. D.
Note.-lf the Planet fall between the Ioth and 4th, this is a
!'extile to the ascendant ; but if it fall between the 7th and 4th,
this aspect is a trine to the ascendant.

OllSER\'ATIJNS.

IJ7 \Vhenever an aspect is measured between two planets, any


other aspect may be ascertained, if it fall in the same hemisphere,
by merely taking the relative proportion of the semi-arc (Ar. 218) of
the planet to be directed. Thus, if we know the distance between
two planets, that is, the arc of direction to the conjunction, then
one-half of the semiarc of the planet which is directed, added to
that, will give the arc of direction to the semi-quartile (219); by
adding one-sixth part of the semiarc to this we have the arc of
direction to the sextile; one-third more of the semi-arc will give
the square, and another third the trine; to which add one-sixth for
the sesqui-quadrate, &c.
z 18 To direct the Midheaven to the opposition of a star, bring it
to the cusp of the 4th house ; to the trine, bring it to the second or
6th house; for the quartile, to the Ascendant or seventh; to the
sextile, it must be brought to the cusp of the 12th or 8th; the
sesqui-quadrate falls in the middle of the 2nd and sth houses. All
aspects in mundo are measured by the semi-arc of the promittor
(Ar. 221).
EXAl-IPLES.

\Ve will direct the Sun to the different aspects it will form with
the M. C. ; if we subtract his distance from the Imum Cceli 61° 9'
from his semi-arc nocturnal 61° +6' we have his distance from the
cusp of the 1st o0 37', which is the arc of direction, M. C. o 0; as
the next aspect falls above the Earth, we must use his semi-diurnal
arc, which is II8° 14', one-fifth of which is 23° 32', which add to
the distance below, the first produces 24" 16' the arc of direction of

EXERCISES.

I.-What is the arc of Mars to the conjunction of the


Ascendant? Ans. 21° sr'
2.-Bring the Sun to the cu!'p of the Ascendant. Ans. o 37·
Some Professors will undoubtedly object to Mercury, l\Iars, and
similar positions being brought to the cusp of the Ascendant ; the
reason 1 use that method is, becau~e I have proved it to have very
powerful effect ; therefore, I unhesitatingly adopt similar directions.

PROBLEM LXV.

120 To direct the Ascendant to the semi-sextile of a Pla1zet.


RuLE.-When above the Earth the sextile to l\1. C. is the arc of
Direction ; if below the Earth the trine of l\L C. to that Planet is
the arc of Direction.
Another Rule.-Bring to the cusps of the 12th and 2nd for the
Arc of Direction by Problems 46 and 47·
EXAMPLES,

137 To direct the Sun or Moon to any Aspect i11 Mundo, direct
Direction.
When the Sun or Moon are supposed to remain fixed in the place
they were at birth, and the planets Herschel, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars,
Venus, or Mercury are moved on to form the aspects, according to
the regular motions of the heavens, the direction is called direct
direction.
RuLE I.-Add together the Pro. Log. (Ar. Co.) of Sun or Moon,
semi-arc and the Log. of the distance o( Sun or Moon from the
cusp of the preceding or succeeding house, to the log of semi-arc
of the planet, and the sum is the second distance of that Planet.
Rule 2.-Add or subtract it from the Planet's primary distance,

WheA the Sun or Moon, above the Earth, is moved onward to
form the aspect, from the Ea!-.t towards the \Vest, or below the
Earth, from the West towards the East, it is termed a Converse
Direction.
RuLE 1.-Add together the Pro. Log. (Ar. Co.) of semi-arc of
the Planet to which the Sun or Moon is directed, to that Planet's
distance within or without a certain house (94 and g6), and the
semi-arc of the Sun or Moon, and the sum is the second distance
of Sol or Luna from the house which forms the required aspect.
Rule 2.-lf this second distance be on the same side of the cusp
whence the primary was taken, the difference will be the Arc of
Direction ; but if the Sun or Moon pass the cusp to form the aspect,
the sum will be the Arc of Direction. (too).

Thus you will perceive, that having worked one direction, others
may be generally obtained from it, by the proportional parts of the
semi-arc of that luminary directed.
N.B.-That semi-arc, whether diurnal or nocturnal, mu~t be
taken where the planet or luminary is, when the aspect is completed.
The Sun at the Queen's birth was under the Earth, but when he
formed the above aspects converse with Herschel he was abovt=~
the Earth, consequently his semi-diurnal arc must be taken.

If we subtract this second distance from the arc of Asc. semi-


square Moon mundo 57° 16', it leaves the arc of direction Moon
semisquare Sun converse 56° 1', it is also Sun semisquare Moon

A nother Problem.
There is a Rapt Parallel which is sometimes formed by one
Planet being above the Earth and another below, when it is formed;
but as both semi-arcs must be worked of one denomination, viz.,
either both diurnal or both nocturnal, then, in such cases, we have
to work with one of the Planets exactly as though it was in its
opposite place.
EXAMPLE,

As there is not such a position in the Queen's nativity to


illustrate the Rule, we must imagine one.
Suppose Herschel, in the Queen's nativity, had been in 23 n 20'
with 0° 8' North latitude, but the Sun and all the other positions
the same as they are ; then the Rapt Parallel would still have been
exactly the same as it is, and we should have calculated it in the
same way as we have done in the last ·Problem.

When does Jupiter arrive at the conjunction of Saturn?
Saturn in 28~(46, and Jupiter in x6=s7, shows that jupiter has
41° 49' to go before he reaches the place of Saturn; an as Jupiter
moves 2° 30' per month, he will arrive at 41° 49' in 18 months
~
weeks after birth, which would be in December of 1820; and as
upiter's celestial period is 12 years, be would come at Saturn in
ecember, 1832-again, by addmg 12 years more, he arrived at
the body of~ in December, 1844-by adding 12 years more,

PROBLEM c.

155 To Rectify a Nativity by Personal Accidents.

RuLE I.-Erect the Figure, and place in the Planets at the


estimated time of Birth, and learn at what time some two or three
important events took place.
282 THE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY.

Rule 2 . -Turn the age at which any event happened into degrees
and minutes by the Table of Equatmg Arcs, m the last problem,
then find the Arc of Direction nearest corresponding with the event
-find the difference between this and the true Arc, and convert
that difference into minutes and seconds by the Table (page rg6),
which difference will show the correct time of Birth.
Observe.-The best directions by which to rectify the estimated
time of birth are those of the M.C. to Mars or the Sun, the Sun to
parallels of Mars or the angles, as their effects do generally answer
very cloSf'ly to the time of direction. Marriage, accident, and
death of parents, are safe events by which to rectify. Take two
accidents, especially if they come near likely Arcs, and correct by
both. As the Queen's natus has been rectified, I have given a
figure, as an example, in the easy abbreviated metlwd of flltwki"ff
Nativities.

OF THE FIXED STARS.

Although the fixed stars are very numerous, only few of them are
found to have a visible effect in nativities, for the following
reasons:-
First.-No star can either rise or set when its declination exceeds
the co-latitude of the country for which a figure is erected ; hence,
they can never affect the Ascendant.
Secondly.-The reason they are omitted, because when near the
horizon, the greatness of their latitude prevents us having a correct
idea of their mundane station. For instance, Rigel, which is in 15
degrees of Gemini, rises with 27 degrees of Cancer, and sets with
the 14th degree of Taurus; consequently it is a folly to place fixed
stars in a horoscope, except they be truly computed, and then
placed in their proper mundane station ; for when the 17th degree
of Gemmi ascends, which is the ecliptic longitude of Rigel, then it
is far below the cusp of the 2nd house ; consequently will not arrive
at the Ascendant in less than three hours after.
Modern professors never name them, or even notice them, for
no other reason than because of the difficulty of knowing their
mundane stations; hence the liability to err in judgment, in cases
in which these stars intervene. The Fixed Stars have influence,
of this the Ancients were aware, not that a single star was of great
power, but the whole combined; for there is not a degree rising,
setting, or culminating, which is not accompanied by several stars.
ASTRONOMICAL PRO~LEMS.

The stars can affect the Planets only by body and zodiacal
parallels, and the latter aspect will be most powerful. Therefore,
planets about the middle of Scorpio and Aquarius will be afflicted
by Sirius (x6f degrees south declination). The Star's conjunction
will have no visible effect on the Sun, Moon, or Planets, if they
differ, in latitude more than 5 degrees, yet may have the same
lon~itude. If we do admit the aspects of the fixed stars, they must
be m opposition both in latitude and in longitude, within 5 degrees,
or they are void of effect.
Although Sirius has no effect on the planets in conjunction, yet
its effects, when on the angles, is as great as that of Antares, which
is 35 degrees nearer the ecliptic; consequently, when on the angles
with the planets, has powerful effects.
If the stars' aspects are considered of important effect, then their
latitudes will not alter their effect. My conviction is, that neither
the aspects of the planets nor the fixed stars can be as powerful as
a conjunction.
If it was not the difference of latitude which diminishes the
power of the Aspects, then the place of a sextfte would not be 6o
degrees in longitude measured in the ecliptic, but from the place of
each body. The latitude is the p~rpendicular of a spherical triangle,
the longitude its base, and 6o degrees the hypothenuse ; then we
have the following proportions:-
As the co-sine of the latitude,
Is to the co-sine of 6o degrees,
So is the radius of the co-sine of their difference
of longitude of the place of the sextile from the place of the fixed
star when measured on the ecliptic; but the square will always be
go degrees, because then the base and the hypothenuse are equal.
ScHOLIUM.-The above proportions are very simple, as the sum
of the logarithms of the 2nd and 3rd terms will always be Ig.6ggo,
from this take the co-sine of latitude, and we have the co-sine of
longitude; then add this longitude to the stars' longitude, and it
will give the sinister sextile, and the opposite point will be its trine.
SEcoNo.-Now subtract the distance required from the stars'
longitude arid the remainder will be the dexter sextile, and the
opposite point of the zodiac will be its trine.

EXAMPLES.

Required the place where the sextile of Sirius falls, its latitude
being 39° S 32'

EXPLANATION OF THE TABLES.

TABLE I . -This contains 6o remarkable Stars, arranged accord-


;ng to the order of the Sign, with their name, longitude, latitude,
declination, magnitude, and nature.
Table 2.-This contains the rising, setting, and culminating,
arranged according to the advancement in time of the M.C. With
this number, in the narrow column to the left with the letters
a (ascending or rising), c (culminating), s (setting).
Those with a are ascending when the Right Ascension (R:A.) of
the M.C. is the same as the time with the letter; the c denotes
culminating; the s shows the Star's setting. All this in Siderial
Time.
This Table is of great Importance, not only in seeing at one view
what star is ascending at birth, but also in directing the angles of
the fixed stars.

EXAMPLES.

A person born January 17th, 3h. 4om, P.M., 1847-what stars are
rising, setting, and culmmating ?
ASTRONOMICAL PROBLEMS. :zs5
h. m. s.
The Right Ascension ot Medium Creli at noon is =
19 45 9
Add the time past noon 3 40 o

The Right Ascension of the M.C. is 23 25 9

Then look for the nearest correspondent in Table 2nd, and yon
find 23h. 27m. 12s. a, and opposite, m the narrow left-hand column,
stands No. 13. Now refer to Table ISt, and you will find No 13 to
ORION's BELT, which is in 20 ll 7, of the 2nd magnitude, of the
nature of '4 and 7 . Again, we find nearly the same R.A., viz.,
238. 35m. 21s. a. Then, by looking at Table 2; we find the No. 15th
star, which, in Table 1, we find ORIONIS (middle star) which is in
21 n 13, of the 2nd magnitude, of the nature of '4 and J. And
because each of them has a attached, it signifies they are ascending.

2nd.-When will CoR LEo come to the Ascendant by direction ?

By Table 1, we find Cor Leo No. 31, for which number we look
in Table 2, and with it stands 2h. sSm. 32s. a, which shows Cor
Leo to ascend when the M.C. is 2h. sSm. 32s.

Now subtract the R.A. of M.C. at birth from the star's R.A.
(after 24 hours have been added, when subtraction cannot be made)
and the difference will be the Arc required.

h. m. s.
Thus, from the R.A. of M.C. whan Cor Leo ascends 2 58 32
Take the R.A. of M.C. at birth 23 25 9

This gives the Arc required. 3 33 23

Convert 3h. 33m. 23s. into degrees by Problem iv. in Table 1,


page 196.

0 "

Look opposite 3h. 32m., on the left hand and you find 53 o o
Then I minute in the hst column is o 15 o
And 23 seconds in the last column is o 5 45

The Arc of Direction is 53 20 45

When will the Ascendant come to a conjunction of Sirius?

By Table 1, we find Sirius No 21, for which number


we look in Table 2, and find opposite to it...... 2 12 56
From which take the R.A. of M.C. 23 25 9
This gives the Arc required 2 47 47

THE NATURE AND EFFECTS OF THE .FIXED STARS.


Of W.-Ascending, gives eccentricity, and gain by learning.
Culminating, makes the native eminent in arts, sciences, mechan·
ism, curious inventions, and learned.
ASTRONOMICAL I'IWBLEMS, ~sg

Of ? .-Ascending-, the native is grave, thoughtful, and solicitous


about building, mmes and minerals; full of care, vexation, and
melancholy ; subject to disgrace.
Culminating, shows strife, and vexation from aged men, loss of
character, troubles, imprisonment, and losses in trade, and deceit-
ful associates.
Of ~.-Ascending, the native born will be sober, grave, and
patient, and gain by gifts, church preferment, and legacies.
Culminating, gives honour, glory, preferment, also success in trade,
or religious preferment.
Of ~.-Ascending, gives wealth and power, ingenuity, and a
noble mind; courageous and generous. He rises to authority, and
is inclined to martial services, by which he is elevated ; yet is
subject to cuts and other wounds ; some sore on the face, or pain
of the head, and feverish complaints.
Culminating, the native will be successful in trade, and chiefly in
metals ; he shall hold some office of martial eminence, according
to his quality of birth.
Of ? .-Ascending, good fortune, inheritance, worldly happiness,
and the love of women ; gifts, or legacy preferment.
Ct~lmimzting, gives honour, and makes much by dealing with
women, apparel, &c.
Of ~ and ? .-Ascending, give legacies, inheritance, also gain by
jovial men, and gain an eternal name ; but foolish in love matters,
and the dupe of Venus.
Culminating, show honour and preferment.
Of ? and ~ . -Ascending, show loss by land estates, the health
indisposed by cold temperament, the native poor, and he will have
but few friends. If the stars be of the first magnitude, he may
rise by usury and other unfair means. ·
Culminating, the native will bear a bad name, will rise by hade
and fall again to disgrace and ruin ; frequently in an unexpected
way.
Of I? and ? .-Ascending, the native will gain by industry and by
marriage, will be of a good temper, healthful, and live in estimation,
the Virgin's Spixe appears to be of this nature (soB).
Culminating, if of the first magnitude rises to fame, by men above
the native's own rank, with an improved state of health.
Of ~ and ~.-Ascending, if of the first magnitude, as of Sirius,
give martial preferment and honour j study well the paragraph soS,
pages 152 and I53·
~ THE ARCANA OF PRACTICAL ASTRAL PHILOSOPHY.

Culminating, prosperity in business, and martial preferment,


especially if the star be Rigel, Arcturus, and the North Scale (529).
Of (J and y;.-Ascmdi11g. give w~nton~ess, sore and inflammatory
and accidents to the eyes, weak s1ght, hable to trouble and loss by
women.
Culminati11g, the native is often in disgrace, and sometimes brought
to imprisonment ; Lucidum, Pleiadum, and other nebulus stars are
of this character.
Of J and 0 .-Ascending, give preferment to workers in iron,
steel, and at the fire; iron masters have good success ; soldiers are
called into active exercise. When stars of this nature are Cfllmife.
ating, as the North and South Ascelli and Capricomus, the natives
prosper in all martial undertakings, and hardware businesses.
a
Of ~ an<l ~.-Ascending, imprint on the mind ready apprehen-
sion, given to poetry, learning, painting, and teaching.
Culminating, the natives ought to follow the calling of printer,
bookseller, clerk, lawyer, and such like, in which the pea and mind
have to be in active exercise.
Of J and ~ .-Ascendmg, give a rash disposition, often very
obstinate, and the native is sometimes ruined by some fool-hardy
procedure, setting at defiance the advice of his friends, and acts
according to his precipitate and foolish fancy.
Culminating, he is changeable in his business, and is never long
satisfied, although he succeeds tolerably well, he must be trying
some other calling in life.

ABBREVIATED METHOD OF WORKING NATIVITIES.

156 After erecting the Figure, as directed (page 281), rectify by


the Rules there given. "When angles are stgnificators they will
meet with a number of aspects, which, when compared together
with the time of accidents, will be so exactly alike in error, that the
true time cannot be mistaken.

157 Rectification of a NatifJity.


The time of this nativity was not exactly know&; but was stated
to be about 1oh. 45m. A.M., 27th November, 1812, for which time a
figure was erected, and the planets' places inserted. The native
had a fall into a deep well at 4 years and 2 months old.
ASTRONOMICAL PROBLEMS.

The Right Ascension of the Midheaven at Birth 224 23
Looking over the figure of the heavens 1 find that Saturn would
afflict the Ascendant by conjunction about that age; and, indeed,
according to pa~e 146, and paragraph 485, that would be a very
powerful arc to mdicate a fall and other accidents. From

This is according to Problems 57 and 64, and for the Ascendant
to be brought to Saturn's body in mundo, Saturn must be brought
below the earth 4 degrees 25 minutes, but we find him above the
estimate time 54 minutes of an Arc, so we find the M.C. in error 5
degrees 19 seconds, or the time of birth too late by about 22 mins.

When many directions are found to one Planet I always keep a

We shall proceed to show how the angles may be easily directed.
THE ANGLES TO ASPECTS IN MUNDO.
Midlzeave" to Asptcts in the World.
I have, in the Problems, shown how the Midheaven may form
aspects, and the Planets shall have passed that meridian point in
mundo. I have proved from experience their effects. and I would
call such aspect mundane or meridian antlcec.J• lllta otherwise say
the planet directed to the angles. For instance, Venus is past the
Meridian, and some Professors would say the M.C. cannot form a
conjunction with \'enus, but I would say Venus to the conjunction
· of M.c.; or the M.C. itself comes down to the place of Venus. In
all cases when a Planet is above the Earth, Problem so, that
Planet's mid. distance is the conjunction to the M.C. But to be
after the manner of the other Professors tlie Planet must be
between the 1st and 1oth cusps; then, in this case, subtract the
R.A. of the M.C. from the Planet's R.A., and the difference is the
Arc. Right Ascension of Mercury 26o deg. 10 min., take Right
Ascension of M.C. 219 deg. 4 mid., difference, 41 deg. 6 min., Arc
of Direction M.C. conjunction Mercury.
PROBLEM 51.-M.C.tosemi-sextile. The Planet must be between
the cusps of the 1st and I Ith, and 1oth and gth, bring-the Star to
the cusp of these houses by Problem 46. The Planet must be
between the uth and 1st, 1oth and gth, the difference between
one-third of semi-arc and Mid. distance will be the M. C. S*.
Thus Mercury's M.D. is 41°6' from which take one·third of 47° 45'
which is 15° ss', and the difference is 25° I I ' for the Arc. As this
is brought to the cusp of the I Ith, it is also the Ascendant to the
sextile of Mercury; according to NoTE 104. \Ve will bring Venus
to the M.C. semisextile; one-third of her S. A. is 26° 34', from
which take 16° 31', leave IO" .f for M.C. s* ~'or Ascendant trine
of ? . See Note 104.
· PROBLEM 54.-Tize Midlzeaven to the Semi-square. In this case the
Planet must be between the Ascendant and the middle of the I Ith,
or between the middle of the 8th and cusp of the 1oth. Then the
difference between one-half the semi-arc and the Planet's Mid.
distance will be the Arc of Direction. Thus one-half of Mercury's
S.D.A. is 23° 5l' and M.D. 41° 6', the difference 17° 1 3' Or for
Venus, her S.D.A. is 79° 43',and the one-half is 39° 51', M.D. 16°
31', difference, 23" 20'. M.C. or Ascendant Sesquisquare of?,

take his M.D. 122° 6', the arc 4° 25' of M.C. o ? \. '?r Asc. d ? • See
Note I 10. For Mars, his S.A. 79° t', and his M.D. 18° II', the

great. Work by the directions laid down in Problem 59, which
cannot be abbreviated. The other Problems connected with the
Mid-heaven are as succinct and plain as they can be made.
.A Shorter Method.
The method I follow, in my practice, is first to look out the last
aspect before birth the M.C. might form with any Planet, I th~n
merely add or subtract the proportional parts of the star's semi-ate.
In thrs natus I would first obtain Saturn's square to M.C.

AStRONOMICAL PROBLEMS.

ZODIACAL ASPECTS.
PRoBLEM 74 is as clear and succinct as we can possibly make it.
Bearing in mind, that if the M.C. is nearly at the end of the Zodiac,
say Aquarius or Pisces, then the planet to which the M.C . . is
directed may be in Aries, Taurus, &c.. Then in such cases, 360
degrees must be added to the planet's Right Ascension, if sub-
traction cannot otherwise be made.
PRoBLEM 75.-In working the Problems connected with the
Ascendant, I recommend the student to frame Oblique Ascensions
for the latitude of birth places, which is easily done by the Table
called " A Ready Reckoner, for finding the AscEmsional Difference,"
among the tables of this Work. Then proceed as in Rules x, 2,
and 5 of this Problem, which is as brief as can be conveniently
made.
PROBLEM 76.-To direct the M.C. to parallel of Declination in
the Zodiac, without latitude. RULE 1 . -That place in the ecliptic
must be found where the Sun acquires the declination of the planet,
either north or south, to whose parallel the M.C. is directed, which
retain.
Mark well.-To get out the Right Ascension and Declination of
aspect, is. also obtaining the place which will serve for the Sun's
parallel that is wanted in Problem Sg. This also serves for Prob-
lem 76, and 77, and Sg which should be worked together; for Rule
I of Problem 76, 77, and Sg, are all worked alike.
PROBLEMs 78, 79, So, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, must be worked as I
have directed in their respective operations.
PROBLEM Sx.-This is a short Problem and easily understood,
and the examples I have given are sufficient to make it plain.
The residue of the Problems remain as they are, for we cannot
make them either shorter or plainer.
SIMMONITE'S METHOD OF TIMING ARCS OF
DIRECTIONS.
Accordinf{ to Problem 99 make a Table for the Sun's Daily
regular Motion (not his Mean Motion), and add each day's motion · li
together for as many days as you calculate years for.
Example. -The Queen was born 23rd May, x6h. 4m., at the noon
of that day set down o0 o', and by looking how far the Sun has
moved in.Right Ascension, which is from 59° xg' to 6o0 20', which
is 1° 1', which is equal to one year of life. Again, add the next
daily motion, which 1s 1°.1', to the last 1° 1' and they make 2° 2',
equal to _two years of the native's life. For 20 years of the Queen's
life reqmres 20° 26' of an arc. Table I I. serves for equatmg the
minutes of a degree, but if you wish to know the day of the month
you must frame a Table like that of page 28o, and proceed as in
Table Ill. of that page
,;,
300 fHE ARCANA oir PRAcTICAL AS1'RAL i>lttL6sof>hV.

The 1\I.C. to the trine of the Sun is 19° 57' turned into time.
Opposite with 19 years I find 19c 24', which I find is 33 minutes
short of the full arc 19° 57', and these 33 minutes I apply to
Table II., and find· it to fall in December, and adding the years
after birth, 19, I apply it to Table III., page 28o, and find it to
correspond with 1838, so the arc of 1\I.C. trine Sun came up in
December, 1838. If I wished to find out the day on which the arc.
was completed, I apply the 33 minutes to Table III., page 28o,
and find it December uth, 1838.

INTRODUCTION.

The 1st Table is for convertin~ CLocK TIME into equivalent


t SIDEREAL TIME to find the true Right Ascension of the Meridian
1perpetually. Add the amount opposite the required hour and
i minute of the Clock thereto, and the sum will be the Sidereal time
since the previous noon; to this add the Right Ascension of the
Meridian, as given in Ephemeris for the month, and it will give
the true Right Ascension on the Meridian.
Ex«mjli,-Required the IUght Ascension on the Meridian at 34 minutes past
lo o'clock at night, of January 27th, 1901.

The 2nd Table is the Poles of the Houses from the tquator to
Eio degrees of Latitude, and they are so simple that we need not
&Pve any examples, only say that the first column shows the Poles
::.1 the first and 7th houses, which are alway~ the elevation of the
ljllole, or latitude of the country; the second column shows the poles
::.£ the 3rd, 5th, gth, and I 1th houses; and the third column the
~>e>les of the 2nd, 6th, 8th and 12th houses. If the latitude of the
~lace be anywhere between an even degree you have only to equate
;c,r the proportionate plus over the equal degree. ·

llll degrees 24 degrees 12 minutes, amount 24 degrees 25 minutes for the pole of
the 11th and 5th, 8rd and 9th hou-, under 118 degrees 111 minutes North latitude.
Or work by Proportional Logarithms, Problem liard.
The third table is of incalculable worth in many problems ; for
instance, in finding the place, either in latitude, longitude, decli-
nation, right ascension, and so on, for any interval of time between
the noons of any day throughout the whole year.
Exo~•Jit.-Required the Sun'a place for 12th o£ March, 1M9, at 20 hours
49 minutea.

Observe.- These Diurnal Logarithms will do for any number of degrees up to


24 the same as the following Proportional Logarithm.
Table 4th is for turning degre«:s and minutes into time, and the
contrary. For instance, 4 degrees of an arc e<J.ual to 16 minutes of
time; or, 4 minutes equal to 16 seconds of bme. The Table is
very simple, and needs no further examples.
Table sth is for deducing Longitude and Latitude from the
given Right Ascension and Declination of the Planets, Fixed Stars,
and Comets, as given in the Nautical Almanack. In this Table
the Obliquity of the Ecliptic is assumed=23° 27' and in most
cases the difference that is caused by variations in · the obliquity
may be neglected; but when reqlllsite, the changes may be thus
allowed ior ; take the tenth of the difference of two consecutive
terms, subtract x6 from it, the remainder will be the variation pro-
duced by an augmentation of 173" 6"'upon theobliquityof the ecliptic.
If th!s 9uantity be diminished by its 2~t~ part, and the remainder 1
mulhphed by o·6, we shall have the vanabon that corresponds to an ;
argumentation of IOO'to the obliquity of the ecliptic. The logarithm
of the fractions are increased by xo, agreeably to the ordinary usage
in Tonometrical tables. The first argument o·oo, is, therefore, really
-xo. Also; at the commencement, the variations of log. A being
::.lmost equal to the increments of the argument, the diff. between
those two quantities is given in the two columns of the first page of
the table. which are headed Ar. Diff. arithmetical comp. of the dift.
The Argument of this table is = log. Rt. Ascens. + log. cot. declio. ·: with this
araument we take log. A. and log. B., and thus-
Log. Tan. Longitude = Log. tan. Rt. Acs. + log. A.
Log. Sine Latitude = Log. Sin. Declin. + log. B.
. .tS_u t to be more plain,, excluding" Axiums," and all other urns, we
mshtute the more ph1losophic rules, more philosophic because
better ';'nde.rstood than all the abbreviated symbols given in

RuLE.-For the longitude-Add together the sine of the body's
Right Ascension, when turned into degrees and minutes, and the
cotangent of its Declination, and the sum will be the Argument A,
which argument add to the tangent of Right Ascension, and the

For the latitude-Add together tht> sine of the body's Declination
and the argument of log B, and the sum will be the sine of the
Planet's Latitude required.

This Table will also abbreviate the calculation of a correct


Horoscope~-forany latitude by trigonometry.

Rt:LE 1.-Add the co-sine of the oblique Ascension of the cusp


of the house to the cotangent of the pole of the house, and the sum
is the Log. of Argument A. To this Log. Arg. A. add the co·
tangent of the Oblique Ascension of the pole of the house, and the
- sum is the cotangent of the cusp of the house, or that point of the
ecliptic which is cut by the cusp.

RuLE 2.-When the Oblique Ascension falls in 'Y', lj, or n, or ia

The cotangent of the Pole of the Ascen. 51 32=9·90009
This gives the Argument 9'52205=9'8325.5
The cotangent of Obi: Asc. of Ascen. =31° 8' = 10' 21894
This cotangent gives 61 9=9'74099

as the Oblique Ascension is between 90 and 180 degrees, acco ·to Rule I,
page 311, of the Astronomical 1ables. See also paragrapb"16 of those
l'roblems.
Table V. may be applied to the Astronomical Problems 24, 32,
75, 88, and many others in Astronomy.
Use of Table VI. Proportional Logarithms. This Table is
chiefly us~d for facilitating the method of finding any proportional
number. The Table is very useful in calculations where sexagesi·
mal divisions are employed. In finding a proportional nu:nber we
have only to find the Arith. Comp. of the first term, then add it
to the 2nd and 3rd terms, and the sum will be the Log. for the
Answer.
Use of Table VII.-Contains the logarithmic sines, cosines,
tangents, and cotangents for each degree and minute of the quad·
rant in the usual way. This Table is so frequently refer.red to
that we need not give any examples, being so simply understood.
Suflice it to say, that the degrees are numbered at the top of the
Table In a direct order, from 0° to f4° and, at the bottom of the
Table in a retrograde order, from 45° to 90°, The minutes are
contained in two of the marginal columns. The minutes in the
left-hand column belong to the degree at the top of the page, and
those in the right-hand column belong to the degree at the bottom.
Use of Table VIII. is for easily obtaining the Oblique places of
Planets for the latitude of Sheffield.
· i:or Example.-Suppose I wish to know the Oblique Ascension of Saturn In
28' 30' of Gemini, I look for 28 degrees, I find • • • • .. .. 52° 8'
For 29 dt.-grees 63 7
The difference is 1 4 for the 1 degree
or (jO minutes, then 30 minutes gh·e the half of 1° 4', namely, 32 minutes, which
I add to 5:l" 3' , and the Oblique Ascension of 28° 30' of Gemini in the latitude

j
of Sheffield is·52" 35'.

'fo find the Oblique Descension for 28° n 30', look in the Tables
of l{ight Ascension and find the difference between its Oblique Asc.
and this Wght Asc , which difference will be its Ascensional Di1fer·
em;c,which from 'Y' to :C= must be added.and subtrac;;~ from :e.·.to If,

Tallie IX. contains Sexagtnary Tables, serving to multiply,


divide, and find out the ProportiOnal Parts for any number under
6o, yery useful where all time is connected with hourly motion.
Example. -If 60° give 24", what will16 require?
I look for the column headed 16, and find it gives 6° 24'.
This Table is so simple that I need not give any examples. They
are nearly allied in use and utility to the" Proportional Logarithms."
Table X. contains the exact Latitude and Longitude (in Time)
from Greenwich, very useful for finding the Latitude of the place
of Birth, and the Latitude and Longitude of any other adjacent
place to those named in the List of Latitude. A minute of Lati-
tude is equal to about a mile Geographical.
For example, Sheffield is 53 N. 25 latitude, and Rotherham is about 5 miles
North of Sheffield (although it is 6 miles N.E. but not more than f) miles direct
!1\orth). I shonld add the 5 mi!es, or 5 minutes of a degree to 53 N 25, and the
amount is 53 N. 30, the latitude for Rotherham.
Table XI. shows the difference in Time for every Ten English
Miles East or Vvest throughout Great Britain. Explanation.-
To find the exact Longitude, or Difference in Time, between
Greenwich and any other place in Britain obtain the number of
miles the given place is east or west from any town in Table X.;
then refer to the number of seconds of difference of Time in Table
XL in ten English miles in the Latitude nearest to that of the town
so found ; record the number of seconds in the distance of the given
place, and ADD the amount, if the town be to the east, or subtract
if the town be to the west, in west Longitude, and the contrary if in
cast Long-itude.
Eaxmple.-Find ;the difference of Time between · Doncaster and Greenwich.
Doncaster lies in!about Latitude 53° N, 30, and is about 17 miles east of Sheffield.
Then, as 10 miles in that lati~ude give 59 seconds. 17 miles by Proportional
Legarithms give 100 seconds, or 1 minute 40 seconds, which subtract from the
longitude of Sheffield, 6m. Os., and you have 4m. 20s. for the longitude, or
"Difference of Time." between Doncaster and Greenwich.
Table XII. is for finding the Right Ascension of a Planet or Star,
for which enter the left-hand column of the Table, and under the
siun and degree of latitude at the top of the columns, and in the
a1~glc of meeting is the Right Ascension required.
Example.-Suppose a planet ~o be found in 10 d.egrees of Aries, and.to ~ave 2
degrees .l\orth latitude; enter th1s Tal>le of R.A. w1th 10 degrees of Anes, m the
left-hand column; :ond in the angle of meeting, under 2 degrees of North latitudo

3t6 INTRODUCTION.

Exllmflt 2.-Suppose ll planet is in 28..:.6 with 2 degrees !U minutes South


latitude, what is its Right Ascension?
Here 2R' give, under 2" of latitude, 206° 16', an<l I pen·ei,·c that the R.A. has
moved 57 minutt:.-s from 28 to 2'J degrees of Libra. Then if W gh·e 57, what w11l
6, the odd minutes give ? Ans.-6 to which I add :.105° 1ti' amount to 201)0 22' f•Jr
the exact 21!-<!.6 ol 2 degrees South latitud!l; but we want fur 2! minutes more,
and I find between 2 and S degrees latitude, the difference is less 22 minutes.
Then say, if 60 give~. what will 24 require? :\ns.- !I minutes, and as the Right
Ascension decreases as the latitude increases, we subtract the 9 minutes from 206°
22' and leaves 206° 18' for the Hight Ascension of :.ltl,~!,l) with 2°2-i' south latitude.
Study well Problem 85 of tho Arcana. (Page 227).
Table XIII. is for finding the Declination of a Star, according to
its place in degrees and minutes in the signs, with any paiticular
latitude up to 6 degrees.

This Table will also be found nearer correct titan aepending


on the Declinations which are given in the general Ephemere&,
which are "Apparent Declinations."
Example 1.--What is the declination of a planet in 27 degrees of .rt with 4°
north latitude? Enter the column at 27 degrees and you will find at the common
anglo of meeting 12° 32', the declination required.
Example 2.~\Vhat is the declination of 12" of Taurus, south latitude 4° 20'?
I find under 4 degrees of latitude and opposite 12" of longitude 11° 39', for the odd
tO minutes take the difference between the columns 4 and 5 which amounts to 57'.
Then say, if 60 give 57 what willl!O give? Ans.-HJ>, which add to 11° 89' make
11° 58'.
The latitudes in these Tables go only to 6 degrees, which is \he
utmost any planet goes, except Venus and Mars sometimes. \Vhen
these happen, you must perceive what difference of Declination
one degree of htitude creates opposite to the longitude required.
For example, suppose Venus be in 2o0 of Virgo, with 7° of north
latitude, required the difference between 5° and 6° opposite 20° of
Virgo, which difference is 55'. I subtract this from the Declination
of 6°, namely, g0 29', the difference is 8° 34' for 7° latitude in 20° of
Virgo ·
Caution.-Care must be taken not to confuse the Latitudes and
Declinations by taking the Table of South for North Latitude and
vice versa, as is common among young beginners, and if this mis-
take be avoided, there is none other can happen. Each page
serves for 8 signs, 4 of them South, and 4 of them Korth, reading
both downwards and upwards; but the common angles of meeting
for the Latitudes are the same.
The junction of the different declinations where the North ends
and the South begins, is marked across the page by black lines,
and should the fractional parts so happen as to be one part North
and the other South, and vice versa, they must both be added ; the
sum of these is called the difference, from which find the pro-
portional parts for the minutes, and if they are less than the first
angle's declination, subtract them from it. .
tf.ITJ10DUCTION.

Ezt~mjle.-Wflat is the declination of a star in !I degrees 10 minutes of Libra


with 4 degrees north latitude? In the angle of meeting opposite !J degrees is
0" 6'· north declination, and opposite 10° 1s 0° 113' south declination, these added
make 24, which is called the difference. If liO minutes or longitude give 2! min-
utes what will the odd 10 minutes give? Ans.-4 minutes; which being less than
the first angle's declination, 6 minutes, subtract 4 from 6. ao1d the remainder is
the true declination of 0" 2' north. Had the number found been greater than the
first angle's declination, the latter must have been subtracted from it ; the
remainder would.have been the true declination south. .
Example.-Suppose the lon~itude to be 9° 40' of Libra, with 4 degrees north
latitude, what is its declination? Proceed as before described-the fourth tern;~
found for the odd 40 minutes is 16 minutes, which being greateer than the 6 min-
utes found in the common angle the latter 6 minutes must be subtracted from it,
and the remainder is the true declination 0° 10' llOuth.
Table XIV. contains the Ascensional Difference, for finding tbe
Oblique Ascensiql} and Oblique Descension of thfl Planets, from
. · any Latitude or Polar Elevation, from 1 degree to 6o degrees.
~
Example.-Take the declination of the star or place of the Ecliptic, and enter
~ the Table of the Ascensional Difference under the pole of the Planet, or Place of
Birth, as occasion may require, and in the common angle of meeting will be found
the Ascensional Difference.
Exampl1 1.-If a star, or any part of the Ecliptic, has 16 degrees of Declination
in the latitude of 53 degrees, what will be its Ascensional Difference ? . Look in
the first column for 16 degrees, and in the next column-on the top of which is
the Pole's elevation, 53 degrees-will be found 22 degrees 22 minutes for the
.Ascensional Difference.
Example 2.-If a star has 19 degrees 20.· minutes declination in the latitude of
London 51° 32', what is the Ascensional Difference? In the common angle of
meeting 19 degrees and 61 degrees, we find , as before, 25 degrees 10 minutes, and
for the remaining 20 minutes of declination say, if 60' give 1° 33', or 93 minutes-
the difference between the declination for 19 degrees and 20 minutes-what will
20 minutes give? Ans.-81 minutes-which add to the 25 degrees 10 minutes,
and the amount is 25° 41'. There yet remains 32 minutes difference in the pole's
ele\·ation. We therefore say, if 60° give 59' what will 32 minutes give? Ans.-
81 minutes-which add to the 26° 41' make the Ascensional Difference complete
26° 12'.
A great portion of these Tables may be worked or equated
mentally, or by Sexagenary Tables.
Example.-If 60 : 1° 38' : : 20'! 31'
add 25 10

Amount for the declination= 25 41


Look in Sexagenary Tables for 32' of a degree of the pole} 0 31
Thus, if 60 : 59 : : 32;31'
26 Ill
By Sexagenary Tables.
I look under 93' for 21 minutes give 31'
And for the 59 see the top and side for ~2= n1
For the equated minutes the amount is= 1 2
The Declination of 19° 20' =25 10
'fhe Answer as before=26 12
INTRODUCTION.
,
I should recommend ~otudents to find the Ascensional Difference
for the Latitudes of the Place of Birth, and the Poles of the Sun
and :\loon, for every nativity which they calculate, and which may
be easily done by the Sexagenary Tables. Then, by that means,
the Oblique Ascensions, and the Semiarcs are much facilitated.
See the Tables which follow the Table of Declinations.
On some occasions the Moon's Declination will exceed 28->, the
limits of the Table of Ascensional Difference; but the difference
between 27° and 28° being found, and the proportion allowed for
the next degree, will give the Ascensional Difference of the Moon
sufficient) y near.
Exo~mfle. -What is the Ascensional Difference of the Moon when 28° 16' north
Decimation in latitude 6SO? The difference between 117° and 28" of Declination is
2° 20', or UO minutes. Look in the Sexagenary Table for 140 minutes, or 2° 20',
and in the common angle of meeting at 16 is the Answer, 37m. which, added
to ·U 0 2~'. the Ascensional Difference. for 28° Declination give the Ascensional
Difference required; namely, 45° 1'
The Tables of Houses are very simply understood. You have
only need to work as under Table I. to find the Right Ascension of
the Midheaven or Meridian; when found, look in the column
headed" Time from Noon," and proceed on the columns horizon·
tally, and Jou will have the degrees occupying the six eastern
houses, an the opposite signs must be placed on the six western
houses.
Table XV. is a "Table of Houses" for the Latitude of 53 degs.
North, which will serve for all England, especially for Horary
Astrology. I have given the use of Table of Houses in Problem
XXV.; but to make the explanations complete-
Suppose a child be born December 26th, 1901, at ~. 10m. afternoon, at
Not tmgham, which is 53 degrees North latitude, wnat is the face of the heaveD& l
/J. fll. s.
Ezamjlt.-The Sun's R.A. at noon, 26th December, is 18 13 13
Time elapsed since noon is 4 10 U
According to Table I. this ~h. 10m. give R.A. add 0 0 41

At ~h. 10m. P.M., December 26th, 1901, the R.A. of M.C. is 211· as ;)!
The longitude answering to this in the Tables is nearly 4 degrees of *on the
cusp of the lOth; 8 degrees of'Y'on the 11th house; 27 degrees of t1 on the 12th
cusp and 9°!11134' on the Ascendant; 25 degrees of!Ilion the 2nd house; and H
degrees of.n.on the 3rd cusp-and\ the same degrees must be placed on the
opposite house with the opposite signs.
Table XVI. is for reducing Minutes and Seconds of Time into
Degrees and Minutes of Longitude, which will be a ready Table
for finding the Longitude of any place from Greenwich by having
the difference of time ~riven.
For example, Sheffield is 6m behind Greenwich.. and the clocks at Shelheld
to be correct must be 6m behind Greenwich to be correct Solar Time.-Then I
look in Table XVI. and find 6 minutes of Time give 1° 30', which is the lcmgi:
tude west of Sheffield from Greenwich. The table is so simple that we aeCd
no other example. The Student must well understand the Rules.

RULES FOR FINDING LOGARITHMIC SECANTS, VERSED SINES, &c. ~


~
I. To find the Secant.-Subtract the Log. Cosine from 20·000000.
II. To find the Cosecant.-Subtract the Log, Sine from 20·000000. ~
Ill. To find the Versed Sine.-Add 0·301030 to twice the Log. Sine of hall the arc, and diminish the index of the sum by 10. ~
IV. To find the Coversed Sine.-Add 0·801030 to twice the Log. Sine of hall the complement of the arc, and diminish the inda ;
of the sum by 10. F"
RULES FOR FINDING ~ATURAL SECA~TS, VERSED SINES, &c.
I. To find the Secant.-Divide 1 by the Natural Cosine. ~
II. To find the Cosecant.-Divide 1 by the Natural Sine. -....
III. To find the Versed Sine.-Subtract the Natural Cosine from 1·000000.
IV. To find the Coversed Sine.-Subtract the Natural Sine from 1·000000. ~
Nou.-In France the circumference of the circle has lately been divided into~ degrees, the degree into 100 minutes, and the ~
minute into 100 seconds, &c., which is called the centesimal division, and is to the sexagesimal in the ratio of 9 to 10; hence, to
reduce centesimal into sexagesimal degrees, &c., subtract one-tenth ; and to reduce seupsimal into centesimal decrees, add ODe-
ninth of the arc to itself. ~

Usa or THK TABLRs.-By having the Ascensional Difference of


a Planet we have only to add that A. D. to the Planet's Right
Ascension, if s011tll, or if it has ~torlh latitude, subtract, according to
the ·93rd Problem, to find the Planet's Oblique Ascension or
Oblique Descension under the latitude of 53 N. 25.
2nd. By having the Ascensional Difference of the Planets in
any .latitude, we have to work by Problems 85 and 86, to find the
Planets'. Semi-diurnal and Semi-nocturnal Arcs. 1f Students

and 118 degrees 86 minutes of North latitude. The longitude of the place ia of
very little moment fn reference to the Table of Hovses, yet the lot~gitiUll must be
duly considered when the Planets are reduced to any particular meridiaD

BEING AN

Astrological and Physical Discourse·


ON THil

HUMAN VI Ln'UES IN THE BODY OF MAN. .


BOTH PRINCIPAL AND ADMINISTRATIMG.

Firstly.-Consider what planet. causeth the Disease.


Secondly.-Consider what part of the body is affiicted by the ·
disease, and whether it lies in the flesh, or blood, or bones, or
"entricles.
Thirdly.-Consider by what planet the afflicted part is governed.
Fourthly.-Yoti may oppose diseases by He~bs of the planet
opposite to the planet that causes them, as diseases of Jupiter by
llerbs of. Mercury, and the contrary ; diseases of the Luminanes
by the Herbs of Saturn, and the contrary ; diseases of Mars by
lterb~ of Venus, and the contrary. · · .
. Fifthly....,-There i!: a way to cure diseases sometimes by sympathy,
and so every planet cures his own disease ; as the Sun and Moon
by their Herbs cure the Eyes, Saturn the Spleen, Jupiter the Liver, .
Mars the gall and. diseases of choler, and Venus diseases in the
inst~uments of generation.
·Human virtu~s ~re either Principal for procreation and con,
servatiori, or Administrating for attraction, digestion, retention, or
expulsion.
Virtues conservative are vital, natural, and animal. By the
natural are bred blood, choler, phlegm, and melancholy. The
animal virtues are intellective and sensitive. The intellective is
imagination, judgment, and memory. The sensitive is common
a~d particular. The particular 1s seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting;
and feeling.
Virtue Procreative, the first in order, is the virtue prcicreative
for natural regards, not only the conservation of itSt:lf, but to beget
its like, and conserve in species. The seat of this is the me.m'b.u.
of1enerittion, and is governed pr\nc\\)a\\1 b'j t\\e. \n~'\\.~'t\~:.o<e ~\~ ~~"'''l
I TH8 RULING OP THI UICROCOIW,

It ia augmented and increased by the strength of Venus, by her


herba, roota, trees and minerals. It is diminished and purged by
those of Mars, and quite extinguished by those of Saturn. Observe
when Venus is strong and make use of her medicines to fortify ; of
Mars, to cleanse this virtue ; of Saturn, to extinguish it.
Conservative.-The conservative virtues are vital, natural, and
animal.
Vjtal.-The vital spirit hath its residence in the heart, and is
dispersed from it by the arteries, and is governed by the influence
of the Sun. It is to the body as the Sun is to the creation, as the
heart is in the microcosm, so is the Sun in the microcosm ; for as
the Sun gives life, light, and motion to the creation, so doth the
heart to the body ; therefore it is called Sol Corporis, as the Sun
is called Cor C~li, because their operations are similar. Inimical
and'tlestructive to this virtue are Saturn and Mars. The herbs and
plants of Sol wonderfully fortify it.
Natural.-The natural faculty or virtue reiides in the liver, and
is generally gc>Verned by Jupiter, Quasi Juvans Pater. Its office is
to nourish the body, and is dispersed through the body by the veins.
From this are bred for particular humours-Blood, choler, phlegm,
and melancholy.
l3lood is made of meat perfectly concocted, in quality hot and
moist, governed by Jupiter. It is by a third concoction transmuted
into fleo;h, the superfluity of it into seed, and its receptacle is the
v~ins, by which 1t is dispersed through the body.

Choler is made of meat more than perfectly concocted, and it is


*he spume or froth of blood. It clarifies all the humours, heats the
body, nourishes the apprehension, as blood doth the judgment. It
is in quality hot and dry, fortifies the attractive faculty, as blood
doth the digestive, moves man to activity and valour. Its
receptacle is the gall, and it is under the influence of Mars.
Phlegm is made of meat not perfectlr digested. It fortifies the
virture expulsive, makes the body shppery, fit for ejection ; it
fortifies the brain by its consimilitude with it, yet it spoils
apprehension by its antipathy to it; it qualifies choler, cools and
moistens the heart, thereby sustaining it and the whole body from
the fiery effects which continual motion would produce. Its
receptacle is the lungs, and is governed by Venus, some say by the
Moon-perhaps it may be governed by them both. It is cold and
moist in quality.
Melancholy is the sediment of blood, cold and dry in quality,
fortifying the retentive faculty and memory, makes men so~1
solid and staid, fit for study ; stays the unbridled toys of luatlUl
6/ood, stays the wandering thoughts, and reduces them home to
!ht; centre. Its receptacle is in tb.e s~\een, and. \tis ~ovemecl bJ'
'4tqrn, .
~E ttOLING or THE MICROCOSM. J
Of all th~e hull)ours blood is the chief, all the rest are super-
fluities of blood; Yft are they necessary superfluities, for without
any of them man cannot live. Namely, choler is the fiery super-
fluity; phl~m, the watery; melancholy, the earthy.
Animal.-The third principal virtue remains, which is animal.
Its residen<;e is in the brain, and Mercury is the general significator
of it. Ptolemy held that the Moon signified the animal yirtue, and
I am of optnion that both Mercury and the Moon dispose it, and
my reasons are-(1) Because both of them in nativities either
fortify or impedite 1t. (2) Ill directions to either or from eitlier
afflict it, as I{Ood ones help it. Indeed;the Moon rules the bulk:of
it, as also tlie sensitive part of it, and ,Mercury the rational. part,
and that is the· reason in a nativity if the moon be stronger than
Mercury, sense many times overpowers reason; but if Mercury be
strong and the Moon weak, reason will be master ordinarily in
despite of sense.
It is divided into Intellective and Sensitive.
Intellective.-The intellectual resides in the brain, within the
pia mater, and is governed generally by Mercury.
It is also divided into. Imagination, Judgment, and Memory.
Imagination is seated in the fore part of the brain ; it is hot and
dry in quality, quick, active, always working; it receives vapours
from the heart and coins them into thoughts, it. never sleeps, but
always is working, both when the man is sleeping and waking.
When judgment is awake it regulates the imagination, which runs
at random when judgment is asleep, and forms any thoughts
according to the nature of the vapour sent up to it. Mercury is
the disposer of it. A man may easily perceive his judgment asleep
before himself many times and then he will perceive his thoughts
run at random. ·
Judgment always sleeps when men do; imagination never sleeP,s.
Memory sometimes sleeps when men sleep, and sometimes it do~s
not, so that when memory is awake and the man asleep, then
memory remembers what apprehension coins, and that is a dream.
The thoughts would have been the same if :-nemory had not been
awake to remember it. These thoughts are commonly (I mean in
sleep when they are purely natural) framed according to the nature
of the humour called complexion, which is predominant in the
body, and if the humour be peccant it is always so. It is one of
the surest rules to know a man's own complexion by his dreams,
l mean a man void of distractions or deep studies. This. most
UIW'edly shows Mercury to dispose of the imagination, as also
·because it is mutable, applying itself to any object, as it is Mercury's
Jtature to do ; .for then the imagination will follow its old bent. If
J maa be bent upon a business, his a~?tehe\\m\\ 'liN~ ,~u.,""
. .
much when he is asleep, and find out as many ~ruths by stridy .as
when the man is awake, and perhaps more, because then it 'is not
hindered by ocular objects. And this much for imaginatio'b,
which is governed by Mercury and fortified by his influence, and is
also strong or .weak in man according as Mercury is .strong or weak
·in the nativity. ·
J udgmimt is -seated in the · midst. of the brah;r, to show that .it
ought to bear rule over all the other faculties. It is the judge of
the little world, to approve of what is gOQd and reject wha~ is bad;
it is the seat of reason and the guide of actions, so that all failings
are committed through infirmity in not rightly judging between a
real and apparent good. It is hot and moist in quality, and under
the influence of Jupiter. ·
Memory is seated in the hinder cell of the brain. · It is the ~at
registrar to the little world, and itc; office is to record things ·eitber
done and past or to. be done.- It is in quality cold .and dry, and
melancholic, llnd therefore melancholic men have generally the OeSt
memones, and are most tenacious in every way. It ls under the
dominion of Saturn, and i&fortified by his influence, but ·purged by
the luminaries. · ·
2.:.:
S~~sitive.-The second part of the a~imal vi.rtue is sensitive,
and it is divided into two parts common and particular. Cori,lmon
sense is an imaginary term; imd:that which gives virtue ;to aU the
particular senses, and knits and unites them together· with" fhe

·not agree, and that. is the reason some . men covet meats which
·make.them sick, that is, the taste craves theln, and the meseraik
reject them. In quality it is hot and moist, andisri1led by Jupit~r.
. 1'h~ feeling is deputed to no parti~ular organ but is spread over the
wholt> body, is of all qualities, not, cold, dry, and moist, and -is the
index of all tangible things ; for if -it were only hot alone, it could
·not feel a quality contrary, viz., cold, and this might be spoken or
.Qther qualities. It is under the dominion of Venus, although some
:say. Mercury ; a thousand to one but it is Mercury..
: 't~e four Admi_nis~e:ting . Virtues' are:_Attractive, digestiv~,
retentive, and expulsive.
The attractive virtue is hot and dry. Hot by quality, active or
principal, and that appears because the fountain of all heat ~s
attractive, viz., the Sun. Dry by qualfty, passive, on account: of its
h~at. Its o!fice is to remain. in the body, and call for what nature
wants. It 1s under the influence of the Sun, say some author~ and
not under Mars, because he is of a corrupting n~ure; yet if w!
.Cast an impartial eye upon experience, we shall find that martial
rhen -ca:ll"·fo"r meat none the least, and for drink the-most of all men,
although m:my times they corrupt the body by it, and therefore I
see no reason why Mars, being of the same•qualiry with the Sun,
should not have a sl,are in the dominion. It is in vain to object
that th~ influence of Mars is evil, and therefore he should have no
dominion ove'r this virture; for ' then by the same rule he $bould
have no dominion at all in the body of man, as 'ill the virtues in
man are naturally evil, and-corrupted by Adam's fall. This attrac-
tive virtue ought to be fortified when the Moon is in fiery sign!:,
viz., Aries and Saggitary, but not in Leo, for the sign is so violent
that no physic ought to be given when the Moon is there. (And
why not Leo, seeing that it is the most attractive sign of all?
and that is the reason those that have it ascending in their genesis
are ·such greedy eaters.) If you cannot stay till the Moon be in one
of them, let one of them ascend when you administer the medicine.
The digestive vjrtue is hot and moist, and is. the principal of
them all ; the others, like handmaidens, attending it.
The attractive virtue draws that which it should digest, and
serves continually to feed and supply it. · · ·
The retentive virtue retains the. substan-ce wjth it, till it be per-
fectly digested. ____ .__ -... . , .
The expulsion virtue casteth out, expel~ what is iuperfluous by
digestion. It 1s under the influence of Jupiter, and fortified by his
herbs and plants. In fortifying it, let your Moon be in Gemini,
Aquarius, or the first half of Libra ; or if matters be come to that
extremity that you cannot stay till that time, let one o{ t\\ew. 'i>.~e"t\.~,

the ascendant. I cannot believe the Moon aftlicts the ascendant


so much as it is said to clo, if she be weft· dignified, and in a si(pl
she delights in. •
The retentive virtue is in quality cold and ·dry ; cold, because the
nature of cold is to compress, witness the ice; dry, because the
nature of dryness is to keep and hold what is compressed. It is
under the inftuen.ce of Saturn, and that is the reason why usuall.Y
Saturnine men are so covetous and tenacious. In fortifying 1t
makes use of the herbs and plants of Saturn, and let the Moon be in
Taurus or Virgo. Capricorn is not so ~· says some authors,
althou'-h I can give no reason for that conclusion. Let not Saturn
or his dl aspect molest the ascendant. ·
The expulsive faculty is cold and moist; cold, because that com-
poses the SU{>f'rftuities ; moist, because that makes the body slippery
and fit for eJection, and disposes it to it. It is under the dominion
of Luna, with whom you may join Venus, because she is of the
8 ame:Oature.
In whatsoever is before written of the nature of the planets, takE
notice that fixed stars of the same nature work the same effect.
In fortifying this (which ought to be done in all purgations), let the
Moon be in Cancer, Scorpio, or Pisces, or let one of these sips
ascend.
• The actions or operations of the I'J,llimal virtues are-( 1) sensitive,
(2) motive.
The sensitive is-(1) external, (2) internal.
The external senses are-(1) seeing, (2) hearing, (3) tasting, (4}
smelling, (5) feeling.
The internal senses are-{ 1) The Imagination, to apprehend a
thing, (2) Judgment, to judge of it, (3) Memory, to remember it.
The seat of all these is in the brain. The vital spirits proceed
from the heart, and cause in a man mirth, joy, hope, trust, humanity,
mildness, courage, &c. 1 and their opposities, viz., sadness, fear, care,
sorrow, despair, envy, hatred, stubbornness, revenge, &c., by heat,
natural or not natural.
The natural spirit nourishes the body throughout, (as the vital
quickens it, and the animal gives it sense and motion). Its office
is to alter and convert food into chyle, chyle into blood, blood into
ftesh, to form, engender, nourish, and increase the blood.

FINIS.
Neptune.
To Ma. JoHN STORY.
Dear Sir,-From the short time that has elapsed since this
planet was discovered not much is yet known about its influence,
either in natal, or any other branch of Astrology, but according to
the rules of Ptolemy for judging of new phenomena, and from
personal observation, 1ts influence is evil and disappointing to per-
sans born when it is in .evil aspect to the 0, I>• or ~ • Its effects
are something like the combined influences of '? or W, obscure,
strange, and eventful, so that wherever a nativity is of a discordant
nature, that is, the 0, ]), ~ the ascendant or its ruler, are aftlicted
by evil aspects of the other planets, Neptune, joining in with the
discordant elements, its influence will intensify the evil effects and
make the work more disAstrous.
When this planet is well located and in good aspect to the 0, ]),
~ , the ascendant or its ruler, so as to have a controling influence
over the mind, it will constitute a character close, reserved, careful,
crafty, ingenious and inventive, studious and clever in mechanical
arts, chemistry, &c., a person silent, not of many words, greedy
after money and property, selfish and indifferent towards others,
of a gloomy, lowering aspect, private and anti-social, careless
iibout dress, personal appearance, forms and fashions, curious, odd
and retiring in manners, Jherefore not much adapted for social life
and company. This planet appears to have a continuous influence
over the minds of spiritualists, mediums, prophets, seers, magicians,
clarvoyants, enthusiasts, and persons who believe in inspiration,
oracles, and futurity. In certain classes it induces to a faith in
dreams, spirits and ghosts, tales of wonder and enchantment,
witching, charming, necromacy, and fortune-telling in various
ways, as card shuftling, palmistry, geomancy, moles, and other
kinds of superstitious craft and artful practices to numerous to
name.
When this planet is badly located at birth, that is in evil aspect
to the 0, ]) or ~ , especially when the nativity is otherwise discord-
ant, it will tend to give or predispose to a morbid condition of the
mind, latent wickedness, and a want of moral sentiment. Such
persons in the lower ranks of life will be likely to drift into low,
immoral habits and practices of various kinds which will cau~ a
loss of reputation, deprive the native of his liberty, or run· him into
prison and exile, as the mind will naturally be very secretive,
daring, aud resolute when fully engaged in any enterprise.
Although rather procrastinating, cautious, and timid at times, he
will have good courage and be a little reckless when prompted and
~ressed by circumstances, therefore liable to get on th.~ ""'t~'tl.,_
line of pursuit.
8 NBPTUN&,

Diseases indicated by Neptune are bowel, liver, and spleeu


diseases, as also bilious and gastric complaints, and affections io
the bladder and urinal organs, as gravel, stone, colic, inflammati~
and obstruction in the bowels and bladder, hypochondria, &c. To
females it denotes barrenness, cancers in tlie womb, hysterical
c.omplaints, .abortion, difficult confineii)ents, and other diseases
common to such orgamsed parts of the body in both sexes. In bad
cases sudden and violent death by fire, fire-arms, explosives,
machinery, assassination and murder, accidents in games and
!'!ports, &c , &c.
The influence of this planet, like W, is evil and unfortunate.
Some idea may be formed of its effects by the condition of Ireland
for the last fourteen years. Neptune entered the ru.ling sign of
Ireland in 1875• and ever since the Irish poo.ple, or a great portion
thereof, have been in a state of turmoil and revolutton. At the
time of the Phoenix Park murders, this planet was exactly in 0
with the 0. ? , and ~, in the sign M, all four plantts setting at
Dublin, May 6th, 1882, at 7-17 p.m., the exact time of th~ murder,
which was a remarkable confirmation of planetary influences.
Neptune was discovered on September 23rd, 1846, at which time
it was located in 25 degrees of:::, exactly in d with the planet ? ,
which prenoted the Crimean War in 1854·
Past events since 1846 clearly appear to demonstrate the nature
of the said planet, viz.,-Home Rule bubble, the discovery and
development of new chemical elements of destniction, infernal
machines, dynamite, new prtparation of chemical poisons, medi-
cines, &c.; also the great changes in the habits and manners of the
people. Then, again, Neptune left the ruling sign of Ireland in
March, 188g, and entered into the ruling sign of London. indicating
those dreadful murders and mutilation of the victims 'of the undis-
covered" Jack the Ripper." This is another confirmation of my
judgment on the nature of this celestial messenger. What other
e\'tmts will follow during its transit through London ascendant, the
Wheel of Time can only unfold. The last time it went through
Gemini it denoted the South Sea Bubble.
The houses of the planets were originally formulated by the
Chaldeans, Babylonians, or Egyptians, hut on what principles they
were deduced is a mystery to the present generation ; nevertheless
there appears to be some truth in the allotment of planetary houses.
According to Ptolemy's theory::: should be Neptune's house, but
m or M might answer well, as they are hoth of an obscure JUid
mystical nature, but it will require more experience, observaiton,
and practice to settle the matter. · ~
